Using Thick Cable and Thin Cable Together
The line connecting two nodes located farthest from each other can use both thick and thin cables pro-
vided that the length of each cable satisfies the conditions in the following table.
Note: L

: Thick cable length L
Thin
: Thin cable length
• Drop Line Length
The drop line length is the line length between the branch point on the trunk line to the
farthest node that is located on the drop line.
The maximum drop line length is 6 m. A drop line can be branched out into other drop
lines.
