GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
The following installation design rule apply for one branch / loop powered only by the Plixus engine (internal
48 Vdc power supply) or an external Plixus Power Supply:
A maximum of 100 W
A specific maximum of devices per product family per branch / loop
A maximum cable length between two units of 100 m
Units Per Branch / Loop
Depending on the type of unit we advise to add a maximum amount of devices per branch. This is to ensure
that the last device in the branch receives enough power (only for devices powered over Ethernet) and limit
delay data transmission.
In the table below you can see the maximum allowed devices per branch.
