Network Configuration Overview Section 2-1
rent consumption of the nodes in the branch is less than 4.57/L or 3 A, which-
ever is lower.
Refer to SECTION 3 Communications Power Supply Methods for more
details.
Note 1. Always use DeviceNet cables.
2. Always connect terminators at both ends of the trunk line.
3. Do not install devices other than DeviceNet devices (e.g., a lightning arres-
tor) in the communications line. Devices other than DeviceNet-compatible
devices can cause effects such as signal reflection and interfere with De-
viceNet communications.
2-1-4 Connections
Branching Patterns
Branching from the Trunk Line
Note 1. The direct multi-drop connection cannot be used for Environment-resistive
Slaves.
2. If thick cable is being used, a multi-drop connector must be used to make
the direct multi-drop connection. (If thick cable is being used, the regular
COMBICON connector can be used to make a multi-drop connection.)
Branching from a Branch Line
Note 1. The direct multi-drop connection cannot be used for Environment-resistive
Slaves.
2. If thick cable is being used, a multi-drop connector must be used to make
the direct multi-drop connection. (If thick cable is being used, the regular
COMBICON connector can be used to make a multi-drop connection.)
The various connection methods can be combined on the same network, as
shown in the following diagram. There is no particular limit to the number of
