Connecting a Fieldbus Coupler to an ETHERNET Network

To connect the fieldbus coupler to an ETHERNET network, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect the power supply from those devices on which you have
mounted the fieldbus coupler.
2. Connect the fieldbus coupler with the ETHERNET network by plugging the
socket of the ETHERNET cable (F) into the IN connection
3. Tighten the socket using the knurled-head screw.

6.3.2 Connecting Several Fieldbus Couplers inside an
ETHERNET Network
The network topology in the following figure consists of a mixed star and line
topology. Up to 20 fieldbus couplers can be connected to the ETHERNET
network on the line topology. An ETHERNET switch is required to set up a star
topology or a mixed topology. The number of fieldbus couplers on a star topology
is limited only by the IEEE 802.3 ETHERNET specification.
The connection of several fieldbus couplers with the ETHERNET network can be
carried out as shown in the following example:
1. Disconnect the power supply from those devices on which you have
mounted the fieldbus coupler.
2. For the star topology, connect the respective ETHERNET cable (W1, W2)
with the IN connection
switch, as shown in the following figure. Tighten the plugs of the
ETHERNET cable.
