EIA / TIA-485 wiring notes continued:
-
The bus common must be connected directly to protective ground / earth at one point only.
Generally this point is at or near the master device.
-
Consider terminating the two furthest ends of the bus to match the transmission line
impedance. A 150 ohm (0.5 W) resistor or a 120 ohm (0.25 W) resistor, which is in series
with a 1 nF (10 V) capacitor is commonly used, but ideally the line impedance should be
matched to each individual installation. Termination for short lengths of cable should not
be necessary < 300 m (< 1 000 ft) @ 9 600 Baud.

See Section 6 - 'Technical information' for cable details.
