Ethernet POWERLINK network topology
An Ethernet POWERLINK network may have a star, tree, daisy
chain or ring structure. The network can also be a combination of
these topologies. The use of repeating hubs instead of switches is
recommended in an Ethernet POWERLINK network to minimize
delay and jitter. Use class 2 hubs.
REPL-01 does not have an internal hub and thus, an external hub
is required. REPL-01 supports 100 Mbit/s Ethernet POWERLINK.
