ARTEMIS
English
5.3. Connection to the BiDi-Bus
In terms of the BiDiB specification, ARTEMIS is a node that is operated
together with up to 31 other nodes on one level. At the same time
ARTEMIS is the interface for a subordinate level with up to 31 further
nodes.
Cabling
According to the BiDiBus specification, patch cables with RJ 45
connections (Cat5 cable) are provided as bus cables for ARTEMIS.
These cables are easy and quick to handle and ensure secure
connections to the interface and to other nodes. Connecting and
disconnecting the cables during operation is permitted (hot plugging).
The two RJ 45 connection
sockets on the main and sub
levels are each connected in
parallel. They can therefore
optionally be used for
connection to other BiDiB
nodes of the respective level.
