Thus all connections are parallel and connecting or discon- necting of a node doesn’t affect the network as a whole. Since ADAM-5000 systems use the RS-4[...]

C - 4 ADAM-5000 RS-485 Network Star Layout In this scheme the repeaters are connected to drop-down cables from the main wires of the first segment. A tree structure is the result. This scheme is not recommended when using long lines since it will cause a serious amount of signal distortion due to signal reflections in several line-endings. Figure C[...]

ADAM-5000 C-9 Appendix C The star connection causes a multitude of these discontinuities since there are several transmission lines and is therefore not recommend.
