PROFIBUS-DP
Use of Drop lines
Transmission rate/Cycle times
The transmission rate set by the PROFIBUS-DP master determines the system's transmission
speed. Depending on the gateway, the transmission speed can be adjusted in a range of 9,6
kbps up to 12 Mbps.
Transmission cables
The bus nodes are interconnected via fieldbus cables, which accord to RS485 specifications
and DIN19 245. The cables must thus have the following characteristics:

Note
The length of drop lines may not exceed 6.6 m at a transmission speed of 1.5 Mbps.
At a transmission speed of 12 Mbps it is not permitted to use drop lines.

Attention
The higher the transmission rate, the higher the number of bus nodes and the longer
the transmission cables, the more important to observe these parameters.
