    2 BACnet Module Installation 2.1 Overview RS-485 Network BACnet MS/TP uses a RS-485 (EIA-485) physical layer, so all of the same RS-485 wiring practices apply. Devices should be wired using a daisy chain topology and the last device should have one 120Ω termination resistor to prevent reflections.
