3.3 Bus Cable<br />

3.3.1 Material<br />

Network Configuration (Hardware)<br />

ISO 11898 sets the following parameters that the bus cable<br />

must comply with to ensure that it provides the set<br />

transfer properties<br />

Charact. impedance : 95 – 140Ω (120Ω)<br />

Earthed capacitance max. 60 nF/km<br />

Conductor resistance (loop) 70 mÙ/m<br />

Shield: Copper mesh shield<br />

or mesh shield plus foil<br />

shield.<br />

3.3.2 Transfer Rates and Line Lengths<br />

3.3.3 Shielding<br />

The length of the line that still allows reliable communication<br />

shortens as the transfer rate increases. The table below<br />

lists some approximate values which must not be regarded<br />

as set limits, though:<br />

Transfer rate Lead length Time for one bit<br />

1 Mbit/s 30 m 0.001 ms<br />

800 kbit/s 50 m 0.00125 ms<br />

500 kbit/s 100 m 0.002 ms<br />

250 kbit/s 250 m 0.004 ms<br />

125 kbit/s 500 m 0.008 ms<br />

62.5 kbit/s 1000 m 0.020 ms<br />

20 kbit/s 2500 m 0.050 ms<br />

10 kbit/s 5000 m 0.100 ms<br />

EN 50 170 leaves it up to the operator whether a shielded<br />

or an unshielded cable is to be used. Unshielded cables<br />

are allowed for non-interference environments.<br />
