Maximal cable length
Factors limiting connection length
The maximum connection length of DNT2Mi is defined by the following
variables:
•
Cable attenuation
The attenuation of a cable depends on thickness and pair capacitance. It
also depends on impedance mismatching, resulting from connecting
different types of cables, as well as from the reflections caused by this.
•
Cable noise level
Noise in a cable is mainly caused by cross talk between wire pairs. The
main sources of noise are units using the same frequency band.
