Connection by means of distributor box
Alternatively, a shared cable for both laser scanners can be routed. This is then split in
a distributor (distributor box) close to the laser scanners and connected to the laser
scanners via the respective connection box.
The common cable to the distributor must have at least 17 wires. A cable cross-section
of 1.5 mm

is sufficient. A shielded cable must be used.
