CM-150 CA Product Guide8
triggering, and one or more CM-150 CA devices. While your specific lighting
network configuration may allow for additional devices, we recommend that you limit
individual Ethernet runs to 15 or fewer CM-150 CA, DIN Rail Mount devices. For
additional CM-150 CA devices in a network, use additional Ethernet switch ports.

Electrical Conguration Guidelines
The maximum number of nodes each CM-150 CA can support depends on the
luminaire type, as well as on additional configuration details such as node spacing
and leader cable length. The table in the margin lists the maximum number of Flex
nodes each CM-150 CA can support, assuming a suitable power supply is used. Keep
in mind that these figures, provided as a guideline, are accurate for the specified
configuration only, and that changing the configuration can affect the number of
nodes per CM-150 CA.
CM-150 CA must be installed in a location that allows air to move freely around the
device. Startup and operating temperatures are rated to 50 °C (122 °F). Exceeding
this temperature limit may cause device damage or failure.
Data Conguration Guidelines
In addition to maximum run lengths determined by the electrical configuration, each
CM-150 CA imposes maximum run lengths based on data integrity.
When selecting mounting locations for the CM-150 CA devices in your installation,
keep cable length maximums in mind:

• In Ethernet networks, maximum data cable lengths are 100 m (328 ft) between
Ethernet devices without a repeater (for example, controller to switch, or switch
to CM-150 CA).
