Ethernet POWERLINK is connected via the RJ45 sockets X251 (P1) and X252 (P2).
[5-6] Ethernet POWERLINK connections X251 (P1) and X252 (P2)
 If possible, do not wire more than 10 nodes in a row in a network line.
 In case of more than 10 nodes you should deactivate the automatic calculation of the
hub level in the »Engineer« and enter it manually to increase the performance.
 With a cycle time of 1 ms, 25 nodes can be operated.
– The number of nodes can be increased if the EPL cycle time is increased as well.
 You can use a standard Ethernet patch cable to connect the communication module to
the Ethernet POWERLINK fieldbus (see Ethernet cable specification
( 33)
).
 The installation and removal of the Ethernet cables is optimised for use of connectors
according to the "Automation Initiative of German Domestic Automobile
Manufacturers" (AIDA).
