2.3.2 M12 DeviceNet drop cables
For the use in for example the IN‐FLOW range or CORI‐FLOW range (IP‐65 applications) it is best to use DeviceNet Drop
cables assembled on both sides with male connector M12 – female connector M12 (5‐pins for data and power‐supply
connections).

In case of powering instruments or transporting data over longer distances Bronkhorst offers also special RS485
FLOW‐BUS data cable, with lower voltage‐drop. Bronkhorst can advise you when to use this special cable, but for most
cases the standard patch‐cables will do well.
If more cables are used in one system, they have to be connected as a daisy‐chain. This means that the total FLOW‐
BUS system has only one begin and one end. For connecting instruments to the bus, Bronkhorst offers special drop‐
cables which enable you to build a daisy chained network of FLOW‐BUS modules.
