Cable length
The maximum cable length of a PROFIBUS subnet within one segment depends on
the baud rate (transmission rate).
Bus termination
Both bus segment ends must be provided with a termination resistor. These resistors
are usually integrated into the PROFIBUS connector. As the bus termination is
active, it must be ensured that both
terminations are supplied with +5 V by a module
or an external power supply.
