1.3.4.1
Data transfer and baud rate
With the RS485 transmission technology, the use of shielded and twisted
two-wire line of cable type A is recommended in accordance with EN 50170:
Loop resistance < 110 Ω/km
Surge impedance 135 to 165 Ω (at f= 3 to 20 MHz)
Wire diameter > 0.64 mm
Wire cross-section > 0.34 sq. mm
Effective capacitance < 30 pF/m.
Line lengths
The line length depends on the baud rate (see table).
Baud rate in kBit/s
Line length in m
(cable type A)
Bus cycle time
The bus cycle time is dependent on the
number of bus subscribers and the
selected transfer rate (see Fig.).
- 1.3 Commissioning
Depending on the transfer rate and number of repeaters,
distances up to 10 km can be achieved using this
transmission technology.
