Product Characteristics
4.7 SCALANCE X005 Technical Specifications
Note
The number of connected SCALANCE X Industrial Ethernet switches influences the frame
propagation time.
When a frame passes through SCALANCE X005, it is delayed by the store and forward
function of the switch:
- With a 64 byte frame length by approx. 10 µs (at 100 Mbps)
- With a 1500 byte frame length by approx. 130 µs (at 100 Mbps)
This means that the more SCALANCE X005 devices are passed through, the higher the
frame propagation time will be.
