Features
The LocoNet uses a six way cable and is easily managed by using RJ-12 modular
connectors. The ease of insertion and extraction of the connectors makes the
design of modular layouts far simpler.
In addition it does not matter where in the
LocoNet a module is attached. Any vacant LocoNet socket can be used.
For mobile hand control one can plan sockets in the side panels of the layout to
connect oneself at lightning speed at any location on the layout.
For setting up a network we offer a multiplicity of suitable, inexpensive, elements. Cable runs of up to 100 meters are absolutely no problem for the LocoNet.

All devices that are connected to the LocoNet, obtain their operating power from the LocoNet. The necessary current is provided to the LocoNet by the digital center. When
using an Intellibox this is 500 mA.
If the current consumption of the attached devices exceeds the current supplied by the digital center, then an additional LocoNet Power feed unit is necessary.
The LocoNet Power Feed Unit (63 100) is equipped with a load indicator and a
power plug pack is supplied.
