Alternatively, the CAN bus may be wired in the fashion commonly
seen in the automotive industry, where a single harness is made
(with proper termination resistor at each of the two ends). Each
module can “tap” into the primary bus harness (crimp, connector,
soldered, etc.) with a cable stub (maximum length of one foot).
In the automotive industry, this is accomplished
with a cable design that has the cable stubs
designed in with end-connectors at various places
in the cable.
As documented in the DW CAN bus specification, both daisy chain or a designed master cable
harness meets the specification’s documented topology (diagram below).
