3.2 Performance Specifications

According to the ISO 11898-2 standard, CAN-bus data transfer cabling has to
be carried out using Twisted-Pair cables with or without shielding providing a
characteristic impedance of 120 Ω. Both ends of a CAN-bus need to be
terminated with 120 Ω termination-plugs. The maximum bus-length depends on
the actual data transfer rate, the kind of data transfer cable being used, as well
as the total number of participants on the bus. The following table shows the
most essential requirements for CAN-networks consisting of up to 64
participants.
