COM128 Installation and Operation Manual Schneider Electric CALCULATING OVERALL CABLE LENGTH When determining the overall length of an RS-485 communica- tion straight-line or loop connection, it is important to account for all cable segments. For example, when RS-485 connections to the device are made via an intermediate terminal block (Figure 4.3.2), the lengths of cable between the device and the terminal block must be added to the total cable distance. This length is equal to 2 times dista
