F.1 General RabbitNet Description
RabbitNet is a high-speed synchronous protocol developed by Rabbit to connect periph-
eral cards to a master and to allow them to communicate with each other.
F.1.1 RabbitNet Connections
All RabbitNet connections are made point to point. A RabbitNet master port can only be
connected directly to a peripheral card, and the number of peripheral cards is limited by
the number of available RabbitNet ports on the master.
