Trane requires duplex, 62.5 μm core glass fiber-optic cable with ST con- nectors, which comes in a variety of types for specific applications, such as indoor, outdoor, burial, aerial, and duct. You can order fiber-optic cable, fiber-optic modems, ST-type crimp connectors, epoxy connectors, and other accessories from approved suppliers in the Trane Buying Group.

An illustration of a D2300 and the connections to it is provided in Figure 20. The D1300 looks like the D2300 shown in this figure, but it has only one fiber-optic port.

  • Page 54 A termination or splice can vary from 0.5–2 dB loss. A clean splice results in increased performance. The fiber-optic modem supported by Trane has a power budget of 14 dB (D1300) or 13 dB (D2300) between 32°F and 140°F (0°C and 60°C). This is the acceptable temperature range specified for the BCU.

    Chapter 7 Network communication Figure 29. Example of inter-building fiber-optic cabling for an IP network Topology Topology refers to the physical design of a network. Networks using twisted-pair wire (10BaseT) support only a star topology, in which each of the devices on the network is connected to a hub like points of a star. A typical star topology is shown in Figure 30.
