Cable selection and network topology
Screened
twisted pairs
have proven useful in CANopen networks. These are cables with twisted
pairs of conductors and a shared external screen. Such cables are relatively resistant to EMC inter-
ference and can still carry 50 kbit/s for up to 1000 m. The CANopen recommendations (CiA DR 303-
1) for cable cross-sections are given in the table below.

The maximum cable length also depends on the number of nodes [n] linked with the BUS cable and
the cable cross-section [mm²].

Recommendations
A 2x2-pole, screened twisted pair (twist CAN-L with CAN-H or +12 V with GND) with a cable cross-
section of at least 0.5 mm² and a conductor-to-conductor capacity of no more than 60 pF/m and a
nominal impedance of 120 ohms. The standard BUS speed of the UVR16x2 is 50 kbit/s. This recom-
mendation corresponds, for example, to cable type

Theoretically this would enable a BUS
length of approx. 500 m to guarantee reliable transmission.

Wiring
A CAN BUS network should never have a
star topology
. Rather, the correct topology is a line from
the first device (with terminator) to the second, third and so forth. The last bus device has the termina-
tion jumper again.
