Signal Processor

5.3.5 Cable lengths

The maximum cable lengths are, to a great extent, dependent on baud rate

and cable type. Generally a lower baud rate will give reliable communications

over a longer length of a given cable type.
RS485

9600 baud, 1000 m when using the cable recommended below,

with correct cable terminations.

Recommended 1000 m cable for RS485:
•

2 pairs individually screened;

~50 ohms characteristic impedance, <= 55 ohm/km;

<100 pf/m core to core

<200 pf/m core to screen
