The Plixus network extender must be powered externally (through power supply of Plixus MME
or Plixus power supply).
One branch or loop cannot consist out of more than 8 Plixus network extenders (for optimized
packet propagation)
One branch or loop may consist of no more than 20 Plixus devices (less if power is limiting
factor).
Restrict a downlink port branch to 1 network speed: 100 Mbit or 1 Gbit!

Redundancy
In Plixus it is possible to insert a type of fail-safe mechanism by creating redundancy. You can get
redundancy by inserting loops in your network. When there is a loop, Plixus can still access the device using
a different route when a cable or a device in one side of the loop breaks.
