Cascading the devices
Cascading is possible if the specifications of the protocols to be transmitted are not violated with respect to
delay times or jitter tolerances (see chapter 3.1.2 "Protocol-specific characteristics of the DDLS 548i").
Due to the very short delay times of the devices, cascading is possible without problem for very many Eth-
ernet protocols.
For transmission protocols that are very tightly specified with respect to delay times and jitter tolerances
(e.g., for synchronous transmissions), the user must check the suitability of the devices individually.
• Protocol propagation times:
Constant delay time per path (2 devices): 5 µs
• Distance-dependent delay:
Distance 0 m: 0 µs
Distance 200 m: 0.66 µs
