FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

Not covered here? Send your drawing — an engineer replies within 2 business hours.

Why must ControlNet trunks use quad-shielded 75 Ω RG-6 (3092A/3092F) instead of standard CCTV RG-59 or CATV RG-6?
ControlNet transmits 5 Mbps Manchester-encoded frames with strict attenuation (≤ 2.2 dB/100m at 5 MHz) and propagation velocity (82 %) budgets; standard CATV RG-6 lacks the four-layer shield coverage and tight 75 Ω ± 2 Ω impedance tolerance needed to prevent bit errors in industrial plants.
When should I use 3092A versus 3092F?
Use 3092A (solid 18 AWG conductor) for permanent conduit, tray, and long trunk runs up to 1,000 m; use 3092F (19-strand 18 AWG conductor) in vibrating machinery, flexing control panels, or short trunk segments with ~20 % shorter distance budgets.
What is the maximum unrepeated ControlNet trunk length with 3092A?
A single 3092A trunk segment supports up to 1,000 m with 2 nodes, 500 m with 24 nodes, or 250 m with the full 48-node capacity before a repeater is required, terminated with 75 Ω ± 1 % resistors at both ends.
Are special BNC connectors required for 3092A and 3092F?
Yes. Quad-shield ControlNet cables have a larger outer braid diameter than dual-shield RG-6 and require dedicated ControlNet quad-shield 75 Ω crimp BNC plugs.
