ANSI CTA 709.3-1999 pdf download Free Topology Twisted-Pair Channel Specification
1 Introduction
This document specifies the EIA-709.3 free-topology twisted-pair channel and serves as a companion document to EIA-709.1. The channel supports communication at 78.125 kbps between multiple nodes, each of which consists of a transceiver, a protocol processor, an application processor, a power supply, and application electronics. This document covers the complete physical layer (OSI Layer 1), including the interface to the Media Access Control (MAC) layer and the interface to the medium. Parameters that are controlled by other layers but control the operation of the physical layer are also specified.

The channel is specified to support free-topology wiring, and will accommodate bus, star, loop, or any combination of these topologies. The total network length and number of nodes may be extended by use of EIA-709.3 channel physical layer repeaters, or EIA-709.1 compliant routers.
The channel data rate is 78.125 kbps. Nodes can be either locally powered or link powered. A link-powered node derives its power from the network. The power is delivered on the same two conductors that carry data. Nodes are polarity-insensitive with respect to data as well as DC power. A locally powered node derives its power from a local source. The data is transmitted using Differential Manchester encoding, which is polarity-insensitive.
4 System Specifications This section specifies the cable type used, terminations required with bus or free topology, maximum node counts and distances for link and locally powered schemes, and the maximum steady state power that can be drawn from the link power supply.
4.1 Cable The cable shall conform to ANSI EIA/TIA 568A Category 5 requirements for 24 AWG unshielded twisted-pair cable. For a complete specification, see ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-A-1995.
