Silver Network data path connections
In the standard Silver Network setup, a point to point loop configuration is used for network
communications. Figure 42:
shows the network connections for the RS-422 and fiber optic
communication options. Figure 43:
illustrates an RS-422 based Silver Network and Figure 44:
shows a fiber optic based Silver Network. Silver Network’s using Ethernet communications use a
star configuration (see Figure 45:
).
