8.2.6 Locally and widely distributed configuration
When a certain controller in a network system having a basic configuration is positioned at a
distance or there is a high-voltage power supply or noise source near a network, a long-haul network
having an excellent noise immunity can be configured by dividing the network into two segments
and interconnecting them with an optical repeater.

8.2.7 Concept of FL-net system
The objective of the FL-net is to establish real-time communication among production system
controllers such as programmable controllers, robot controllers, and computer numerical control
devices.
FL-net establishes a broadcast-based token passing mechanism on the UDP/IP protocol of Ethernet
and uses it to effect cyclic communication and message communication.
