3.4.2 Cable specifications
The J.NET module requires two pairs of shielded twisted-pair cables.
We recommend polyethylene-insulated vinyl sheath cables that meet the specifications shown in Table 3-2.
Note: The preceding table shows a characteristic impedance of 110Ω at 1 MHz. However, the J.NET module
has 120Ω internal terminating resistors in consideration of other transmission rates.
