Communication Cable Topology
The option modular connector CN1 port 1 and port 2 act as a switch to allow for flexibility in cabling topology. Users
may employ a traditional star network topology using a single communication cable port on the option.
Users may also choose to employ a ring topology using both communication modular connector ports on the option and
reduce the requirements of PROFINET switch ports.
