PROFINET topologies
7.4.1 Star topology
The BPS can be operated as a single device (standalone) with individual device name in a PROFINET -
star topology. The PLC must communicate this device name to the participant during the “device naming”
(see chapter 8.5).

7.4.2 Linear topology
The integrated switch functionality of the BPS offers the possibility to network multiple BPS devices. In
addition to the classic "star topology", a "linear topology" is thus also possible. The wiring of the network
in a linear topology is simple and economical since the network connection is looped through from one
participant to the next. The maximum length of a segment (connection from one participant to the next) is
limited to 100 m.
NOTICE
Self-configured cables!
Ensure adequate shielding. The maximum cable length of 3 m must not be exceeded.
