Connecting a CAN Bus to the NI 9853 Each port of the NI 9853 can be connected to any location on a CAN bus. Figure 2 shows one example of the connection of CAN0 of the NI 9853 directly to one CAN node, and CAN1 directly to another CAN node.
Cabling Requirements for NI 9853 This section deals with cabling specifications, termination resistors, cable lengths, and the number of CAN nodes that can exist in a system. Cable Specifications Cables should meet the physical medium requirements specified in ISO 11898, shown in Table 3. Belden cable (3084A) meets all of those requirements, and should be suitable for most applications.
