The LA-PANEL front side features two Ethercon
A maximum of 253 LA8 can be interconnected within the same network (84 LA-RAK + 1 LA8).
IMPORTANT
To set up an L-NET network with several LA-RAK, three cabling schemes can be used, as illustrated in Figure 32,
Figure 33 and Figure 34:
-
Daisy-chain: The IN connector of a first LA-RAK is linked to the computer driving LA NETWORK MANAGER. The
network is then set up by linking the OUT connector of each LA-RAK to the IN connector of the following LA-RAK
in the chain.
-
Star: The computer driving LA NETWORK MANAGER is connected to a switch (not provided), which is directly
linked to each of the LA-RAKs via their IN connector.
- Hybrid: Both topologies are jointly used: the star topology to distribute the network to several LA-RAKs and then
the daisy-chain topology to serially cable other LA-RAKs with each of the first LA-RAKs.
