• 100BASE-TX
Shielded twisted pair cable (STP)
or unshielded twisted pair cable
To be selected by the (UTP) of category 5 or higher
user.
• 10BASE-T
Shielded twisted pair cable (STP)
or unshielded twisted pair cable
(UTP) of category 3 or higher
*1 The destination connected with the twisted pair cable varies with the configuration of the applicable Ethernet network system.
Connect to the Ethernet module, hub, transceiver, wireless LAN adapter (NZ2WL-JPA or NZ2WL-JPS), or other system
equipment corresponding to the applicable Ethernet network system.
Use cables, connectors, and hubs that meet the IEEE802.3 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX standard.
For the controllers that can be connected to the wireless LAN adapters and how to set the wireless LAN adapter, refer to the
manual of the wireless LAN adapter used.
*2 A straight cable is available.
When connecting the GOT and PC directly with Ethernet cable, remember that the by cross cable is available.
*3 A length between a hub and a node.
The maximum distance differs depending on the Ethernet device to be used.
The following shows the number of the connectable nodes when a repeater hub is used.
• 10BASE-T: Max. 4 nodes for a cascade connection (500m)
• 100BASE-TX: Max. 2 nodes for a cascade connection (205m)
When switching hubs are used, the cascade connection between the switching hubs has no logical limit for the number of
cascades.
For the limit, contact the switching hub manufacturer.
