2.2.8 Network Wiring
(1) CC-Link
Check the operation manual for the master (PLC) for details on CC-Link. The following explains the points to note
regarding network wiring.
An example of network connection is shown below.
[1] An equipment connected via CC-Link is called a “station,” and 1 to 64 can be set as slave station numbers. Both
master and slave stations can be set in any positions.
[2] Each station is connected based on direct line branching at the station. T-branches using commercial terminal
blocks, etc., are also supported.
[3] Use a dedicated 3-core shielded twisted pair cable for CC-Link.
The details of the dedicated cable are as follows.
Color Signal type
Blue Communication line A (DA)
White Communication line B (DB)
Yellow Communication ground line (DG)
--- Shield (SLD)
[4] A terminal resistor must be installed on both ends of the CC-Link system. Each terminal resistor is connected
between “DA” and “DB.” Take note that the required terminal resistor varies depending on the applicable cable, as
shown below.

[5] The baud rate is limited by the length of the network (total branch line length, maximum network length).
