Transmission rates and maximum transmission distances
The maximum length of a cable depends on the transmission rate. Table 2-2 describes
the transmission rates and corresponding transmission distances.

Besides the shielded twisted-pair copper cables, you can also use optical fibers for
transmission in a PROFIBUS system. When a PROFIBUS system is applied in an
environment with strong electromagnetic interference, you can use optical fiber conductors to
increase the high-speed transmission distance. Two types of optical fiber conductors can be
used. One is low-cost plastic fiber conductors that can be used when the transmission
distance is shorter than 50 m; and the other is glass fiber conductors that can be used when
the transmission distance is shorter than 1 km.
