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.

For setting up a bus topology a shielded twisted pair with at
least two leads and the following electric characteristic values
should be used:
characteristic impedance
: 100 ... 130
Ω
at f > 100 kHz
operating capacity
: max. 60 pF/m
conductor cross section
: min. 0.22 mm² (AWG 24)
attenuation
: max. 6dB referred to the
overall length
