3.4 Maximum transmission distance
The maximum transmission distance varies depending on the set-up of
transmission rate and the number of connected segments (stages).
Table 3.4 Conditions for change in maximum transmission distance
Condition
Description
Transmission rate
Maximum transmission distance in each segment is the same as
that of the normal CC-Link system (the system with one segment
only). It varies depending on the transmission rate.
For details, refer to the user’s manual of the master module used.
(The station-to-station cable length for the repeater is the same as
that for the remote I/O station.)
No. of stages for
segment connection
Maximum transmission distance for one segment is added for each
additional stage connection.
