4 General about SattBus installation

A shielded twisted pair cable with a minimum

of 3 twists/m and 80–120 Ωcharacteristic

impedance should be used as the bus cable.

Minimum area is 0.35 mm 2.

Note! The same type of cable must be used for

the entire SattBus installation.

Cable length and number of nodes

The total length must not exceed 500 m.

Termination

The bus cable should be terminated with

100 Ωresistors, connected at the two most

remote ends, measured along the cable. See

figure above.

All units in EPC 50 system, i.e. OP, I/O and

MT 50, have internal termination resistors

which can be connected/disconnected by

jumpers.

For EPC 50 I/O-board termination resistor is

connected by placing jumper XJ3 in position

TERM.
