7.2. Communication Characteristics
“Upstream” network Profibus-DP
“Downstream” network Modbus RTU
Profibus-DP
characteristics
• Transmission method: PROFIBUS DIN 19245 Part 1.
• Nature of network: Device-oriented bus (DeviceBus).
• Network topology: multipoint linear topology (bus) with adapted and active line
terminations (see chapter 2.6.2 Wiring Recommendations for the Profibus-DP
Network, page 20).
• Physical media: single twisted pair copper cable, shielded or not, preferably a
type A Profibus-DP cable, with the following characteristics:
- Impedance .......135 to 165 Ω - Loop impedance.....................110 Ω/km
(nominal value........... 150 Ω) - Conductor diameter................. 0.64 mm
- Capacity .............< 30 nF/km - Conductor section................> 0,34 mm²
• Connections: 9-point SUB-D connectors, preferably (see chapter 2.6.2 Wiring
Recommendations for the Profibus-DP Network, page 20).
• Communication speed: 9.6, 19.2, 45.45, 93.75, 187.5, 500, 1,500 or 12,000 kbits/s.
• Maximum network length: the length of each segment (from one line termination
to the other) is limited and depends upon the transmission rate. Using one, two,
or three repeaters makes it possible to put such segments end to end; one can
thus derive the maximum
total length of the network, without changing the
maximum length of each segment.
