A segment is a bus link between two terminating resistors. A segment can include
up to 32 nodes. It is also limited by the permitted line length, depending on the
transmission rate.

These maximum transmission rates are possible:
• MPI
– 12 Mbps with CPU 318-2 DP
– 187.5 Kbps with all other CPUs
• PROFIBUS DP: 12 Mbps
