5.3 HOW TO SET UP A MASTERBUS NETWORK

Every device that is suitable for the MasterBus network is
equipped with two data ports. When two or more devices
are connected to each other through these ports, they
form a local data network, called the MasterBus.
Keep the following rules in mind:
Connections between the devices are made by
standard straight UTP patch cables. Mastervolt
can supply these cables. These cables are also
commonly available at computer supply stores.

As with all high speed data networks,
MasterBus needs a terminating device on both
ends of the network.

The electric power for the network is supplied
by the connected MasterBus devices.
At least one device in the network should have
powering capabilities (see specifications).
One powering device can power up to three
non-powering devices.
As all powering devices are galvanic isolated,
multiple powering devices are allowed.
