A repeater is counted as a device on each data bus to which it is connected.
When third party devices are connected to a data bus segment, the number of devices that can be
connected to that data bus segment may be reduced. See

Figure 103: Repeater Connections when it is the First or Last Device on its Respective Data Bus Segment
The BACnet MS/TP Data Bus must be biased. This bias can only be provided by built-in EOL termina-
tion resistors (ones set with a jumper or DIP switch). When a repeater is the first or last device on its
respective data bus segment, use the following methods to provide MS/TP Data Bus biasing and EOL
termination as applicable to your situation:
1. On the BACnet MS/TP data bus segment ❶ shown in the above figure, bias and EOL termination
is provided by a controller’s built-in EOL termination being set to ON. In this case the connection to
the repeater cannot be more than 7.6 meters (25 feet) from this controller.
2. On the BACnet MS/TP data bus segment ❷ shown in the above figure, a 120Ω EOL Termination
resistor is added to the repeater’s terminals. Biasing for this BACnet MS/TP data bus segment is
provided by the built-in EOL termination being set to ON at the last controller at the other end of
this data bus.
