3.8 ROBNET2 network cables
As Robnet units have two Robnet2 connectors (blue) they can be
used as "jack points" for further expansion of the system. There
are no dedicated "in" or "out" connectors. You may connect the
cables to any available Robnet2 connector (blue) on the specific
unit. The Robnet2 connectors have a locking mechanism for
extra safety.
Caution ! Do not mix the blue Robnet2 cables with the yellow SimNet
cables.
The 10 m cable to the autopilot computer has a connector at both
ends. Robnet2 cables with 5 pin male connector at both ends are
available in 1, 5 and 10 m length. For cable extension a Robnet2
T-Joiner is required.
When installing a system, try to minimize total Robnet2 cable
length by connecting all Robnet2 units to the nearest available
Robnet2 connector.
Total length of Robnet2 cable installed in a system should not
exceed 50 m (165').

A Robnet2 T-Joiner P/N 24005662 is available to make the
Robnet2 interconnection more simple by reducing the number of
cables or extend cables when necessary.
See table for pin configuration and colour code of the network
cable.
