SPECIFICATIONS for S9576
General     CE conforms to EMC Directive 89/336/EEC amended by 93/68/EEC, and also with the Low Voltage Directive 72/23/EEC
Safety:     EN60950
EMC emissions:     EN55022:1995 Class A
EMC immunity:     EN50082-2 Industrial environment
Operating temperature:   0 to +60°C

Isolation:     Individual transformer isolation on each ALIN port; note
that the cable screens should be connected to chassis via
shielded connector to ensure EMC conformance

Node capacity and cable lengths
  Cable Connector Length/Segment Notes
Twisted-pair bus: Cat 5 (shielded) RJ45 100m 16 nodes max (No active hubs)
Twisted -pair bus Cat 5 (shielded) RJ45 122m 8 nodes max per segment with active hubs
Glass fibre-optic: 50/1251 ST 915m Point to point pair
  62.5/125 ST 1825m Point to point pair
  100/140 ST 2740m Point to point pair
Note: 1.   62.5/125 cable generally preferred

Basic ALIN specifications
Data rate:     2.5Mb/s
Access method:     Token passing
Max node addresses/network:   254
Max electrical nodes per segment:   8
Max distance:     6700m approx (with fiber-optic cable and repeaters assuming extended timeouts are not used)
Note: The total combined transmission distance using fiber-optic cable and multiple hubs depends on the signal propagation delay along the transmission media.

Propagation delays
Max one-way delay for ALIN segment:   31μs
Active hub:     320ns
Cat 5 cable:     5.7ns/m
Fibre-optic cable:     5ns/m
