Device Type Maximum Allowed
FTT-10 Nodes
Only
64 (if repeaters are not used), 127 (if repeaters are used)
Mixed FTT-10 and
LPT-10 Nodes

([FTT10 x 2] + LPT10) < 128
Terminators:
Bus Topology 2 bus type EOL terminators required (NU-EOL202-0)
Free Topology 1 free topology terminator required (NU-EOL203-0)
Physical Layer
Repeaters
Maximum of 1 per segment
1 Each LPT10 channel segment (between repeaters) requires its own power supply. Other factors, such as power
consumption of individual LPT10 devices, may limit a segment to fewer devices. The MS-NAE352x-x an MS-NAE452x-x
models that support a LonWorks Network trunk do not have an internal network terminator.
