3 Network Topologies
The following network topologies can be realized with the
OZD Profi 12M … PRO:
䡲
Point-to-point connections
䡲
Line topologies
䡲
Star topologies
䡲
Redundant optical rings
Combinations of these basic types are also possible.
Lines with two optical fibers are used to create the fiber
links for these network topologies.
If a malfunction – e.g. a break in a fiber line – makes a
high degree of field bus network fail-safety necessary,
the availability of the network can be increased using a
redundant network configuration.
Please note:
䡲
Single terminals or entire PROFIBUS segments
with max. 31 subscribers can be connected to the
electrical interface of the OZD Profi 12M … PRO.
䡲
In areas with a high EMC incidence, only lay opti-
cal fiber lines in order to exclude the possibility of
EMC affecting the whole network.
䡲
Optically
only OZD Profi 12M … PRO of the
same type
can be connected together:

䡲
Optical channels which are connected by optical
fiber must be set to the same operating mode.
䡲
Junctions between different OZD Profi 12M … PRO
types are only possible via the RS485 interface.
䡲
OZD Profi 12M G12(-1300) EEC PRO can be used
everywhere in those network topologies described
below in which a OZD Profi 12M G12(-1300) PRO
can also be used.
