Junction Box and Wiring Guideline for Twisted Pair LONWORKS Networks
LONWORKS Engineering Bulletin
This bulletin identifies the different types of cabling and junction boxes that may be used in twisted pair LONWORKS networks. The recommendations presented herein are intended to assist network integrators, OEMs, electrical system designers, interconnection device manufacturers, and cable manufacturers, and are provided for informational purposes only. For specific details on the operation and cabling requirements of the FT 3120/FT 3150 Free Topology Smart Transceivers, TP/FT-10 (FTT-10A and LPT transceivers), TP/XF-78 (TPT/XF-78 transceiver), TP/XF-1250 (TPT/XF-1250 transceiver), and TP-RS485 (TPRS485 control module) channels please refer to the pertinent users guides. The guides can be downloaded from Echelons web site at www.echelon.com. This document also includes specifications for twisted pair cabling for use in train braking applications compliant with the requirements of the Association of American Railroads. The AAR application uses the PL-20 channel (PLT-22 Power Line Transceiver or PL 3120 or PL 3150 Power Line Smart Transceiver) operating over a doubly terminated twisted pair power cable 3 kilometers in length. In such applications a special, non-standard coupling circuit and cable terminations are required, please contact Echelon for details.

Echelon has qualified cabling that meets the TIA 568A standard, and any cabling from any manufacturer - that meets this standard is acceptable. For the TP/FT-10 channel operating in a bus topology, the maximum bus length of TIA 568A Category 5 cabling is 900 meters, with a maximum stub length of 3 meters. For the TP/FT-10 channel operating in free topology, the maximum length of TIA 568A Category 5 cabling is 250 meters maximum node-to-node distance, and 450 meters maximum total wire length. For the TP/XF-1250 channel operating in a bus topology, the maximum bus length of TIA 568A Category 5 cabling is 130 meters, with a maximum stub length of 0.3 meters. There are topology restrictions associated with the use of this channel refer to Chapter 5 of the TPT Twisted Pair Transceiver Users Guide before installing any cabling for this channel.
For the TP/FT-10 channel operating in a bus topology, the maximum bus length of Belden 8471 cabling is 2700 meters, with a maximum stub length of 3 meters. For the TP/FT-10 channel operating in free topology, the maximum length of Belden 8471 cabling is 400 meters maximum node-to-node distance, and 500 meters maximum total wire length.

Level 4 Cable
Level 4 cable may be used with TP/FT-10, TP/XF-78, or TP/XF-1250 channels. The Level 4 cable specification used by Echelon and as originally defined by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) differs from the Category 4 specification proposed by the Electronic Industries Association/Telecommunication Industry Association (EIA/TIA). The following specifications can be used by cable suppliers to identify a compliant Level 4 cable or produce an equivalent cable:

Junction Boxes
A junction box provides an interface between the twisted pair cable and one or more LONWORKS application nodes. The twisted pair cabling used between junction boxes will depend on the type of transceiver being installed. For free topology twisted pair systems, including the FT 3120/FT 3150 Free Topology Smart Transceiver, FTT-10A Free Topology Transceiver, LPT-11 Link Power Transceiver (figure 1), the PLT-22 Power Line Transceiver, and the PL 3150/PL 3120 Power Line Smart Transceiver, the wiring is typically specified separately for each transceiver. For systems using TP/XF-78, TP/XF-1250, TP-RS485, TPT/XF-78, or TPT/XF-1250 modules the bus wiring is 22AWG (0.65mm), while either 22 or 24AWG (0.5mm) cabling may be used on the stub between the junction box and the LONWORKS application node (figure 2).

LONWORKS Application Node Figure 2 Typical Network Topology for Bus-Topology Networks
A Pass-Thru Junction Box is intended to be a splice point only and does not include interconnections for a local node. A Stub Junction Box provides both a stub for a local node and a convenient splice point for cables passing to the previous and next junction boxes. A Local Loop Terminal Junction Box provides terminals for a local loop and a splice point for cables passing to the previous and next junction boxes. These two junction boxes are intended to be used when the distance between the junction box and the local node exceeds the allowed stub length, or when a loop-style architecture is desirable. The connector that will be used to connect the twisted wire pair to the application node is typically defined by the industry application. For the purposes of the discussion about junction box design that follows, we need to establish a common definition of terms. These terms, and their definitions, are presented below.
Color Code The color of the LONWORKS network cable conductors. In systems using a single twisted wire pair (two wire), the colors will be white/blue (W/B) and blue (B). In systems using a dual twisted wire pair (four wire), the colors will be white/blue (W/B), blue (B), white/orange (W/O)), and orange (O). A shield drain wire (S) may be provided in either single or dual twisted wire pair networks, and will be clearly designated by color coding or other markings as being a shield or drain wire. Wiring that originates at the previous node. A connector arrangement in which wiring is affixed to insulation displacement terminals. Multiple wires can be attached to a single connector bus either by permitting two conductors to be inserted in the same displacement terminal or by providing two or more displacement terminals on a common bus. A loop of bus cable that exits from a junction box, interconnects with a node, and returns to the junction box. A power source that provides operating power to a locally powered node.

This Appendix is intended for use by vendors who manufacture electrical cables and would like those cables approved by Echelon for use on one or more LONWORKS channels. Echelon approves cables based on information supplied by the cable vendor: the vendors self-certify that their products comply with Echelons published specifications, and the responsibility to meet and adhere to these specifications reside solely and exclusively with the cable vendors. Echelon will not test any cables or validate the electrical characteristics of the submitted cables. Echelon relies exclusively on the veracity of the information provided by the cable vendors. To submit a cable for approval, please complete the vendor information for each geographic area in which your products are sold. For each cable being submitted for approval, please complete the pertinent cable type form. You must include entries for every blank space in the table. Failure to fill out the form completely will result in the rejection of your application. One form must be completed for each cable submitted for your approval. For reference purposes, the mandated specifications are shown in italicized type in each table. Send or fax your completed application to: Echelon 550 Meridian Avenue San Jose, CA 95126 USA Attn: Echelon Support Fax number: +1-408-790-3801 (attention Echelon Support)
