The RS-485/RS-422 standard covers line lengths up to
4000 feet. For line lengths greater than 4000 feet, see
Figure 16.
Figure 13 shows the system differential voltage for the
parts driving 4000 feet of 26AWG twisted-pair wire at
110kHz into 120
the MAX1482/MAX1483 output shows virtually no dis-
tortion.
The MAX1482/MAX1483 transceivers are designed for
bidirectional data communications on multipoint bus
transmission lines. Figures 14 and 15 show typical net-
work applications circuits. These parts can also be
used as line repeaters, with cable lengths longer than
4000 feet, as shown in Figure 16.
To minimize reflections, the line should be terminated at
both ends in its characteristic impedance, and stub
lengths off the main line should be kept as short as
possible (although the slew-rate-limited MAX1482 and
MAX1483 are more tolerant of imperfect termination
than standard RS-485 ICs).
For isolated RS-485 applications, see the MAX253 and
MAX1480 data sheets.
