Dear Islam Fouad Elkholy,
A-Link ports of NetBotz devices are absolutely equal and identical. Therefore, all three connection methods are correct and can be applied:
Term->ALnk|NetBotz|ALnk<---->ALnk|TH1|ALnk<---->ALnk|TH2|ALnk<-Term
Term->ALnk|TH2|ALnk<---->ALnk|NetBotz|ALnk<---->ALnk|TH1|ALnk<-Term
Term->ALnk|TH2|ALnk<---->ALnk|TH1|ALnk<---->ALnk|NetBotz|ALnk<-Term
The basic rule of the A-Link bus, as for similar serial data buses, is the use of terminators (wave impedance balancers of the communication line) at both ends of the communication line.
With respect.
