Note: These specifications refer to bus cables with a conductor
cross section of 0.22 mm² and a permissible signal attenuation
of max. 6 dB referred to the overall length. According to previ-
ous experience the line length can be twice as long if a two-
wire circuit with a conductor cross section of at least 0.5 mm² is
used.
