For multiple connections (Multidrop mode), the following formula shall be used:
L = [(65 x 10
6
) / (R x C)] x (Cn x 5000 + 10000) / C
with
L: cable length [m or ft]
R: load resistance (incl. the resistance of any Zener barrier) + cable resistsance [
Ω
]
C: cable capacitance [pF/m or pF/ft]
Cn: number of transmitters in the loop
Conductors
Resistance [
