Industrial networks - Fieldbus specifications - Part 2-100: Physical layer specification and service definition - Type 100 elements
Abstract
This document is applicable to process automation equipment using a 10BASE-T1L and 100BASE-T1L compliant Physical Layer (PHY). Ethernet-APL intrinsically safe profiles with different predefined entity or limitation parameters (for example voltage, current, power, capacitance, inductance, cable length) simplify the examination of the interconnection of different Ethernet-APL ports. Furthermore, this document is also applicable to factory and building automation equipment using a 10BASE-T1L and 100BASE-T1L compliant, and Power over Data Lines (PoDL) compliant Physical Layer (PHY) for non-intrinsically safe Ethernet installations.
