Figure 8‑66 CAN bus topology
The transmission distance of the CAN bus is directly related to the baud rate and the
communication cable. The following table describes the relationship between the
maximum bus length and the baud rate.

8.6.3 EtherCAT Wiring
Use standard RJ45 network ports and standard registered jacks for the EtherCAT bus.
Use Cat 5e shielded twisted pair cables and injection molding wires with iron shells.
As verified by FastEthernet technology, when the EtherCAT bus is used, the cable
between equipment shall not exceed 100 m. Failure to comply may result in signal
attenuation, affecting normal communication.
Figure 8‑67 Requirements on fabrication of EtherCAT network cables
Use shielded cables for network data transmission for the EtherCAT bus. Network
cables of the specifications specified in the following table are recommended.
