The decision to use multi-pair or single pair trunk cabling depends on the
number of segments installed in the field junction box. Typically, the
trunk cable will be a multi-pair cable if you have more than one segment
in the junction box. Note that under all circumstances, there will be at
least 2 Fieldbus trunk pairs run together (one active and one spare
minimum).

From prior FF projects implemented at Saudi Aramco, the following trunk
installation design is a cost effective solution: From the marshalling
cabinet route a multi-pair cable (e.g., 12-24 pair) to an intermediate
junction box. Note: This intermediate junction box only contains pass-
through terminal blocks i.e., no wiring-blocks. From the intermediate
junction box then route multi-pair cables (e.g., 2-6 pair) to outlying FF
junction boxes. This method reduces the number of FF cables entering
the PIB and reduces the total installed cost of the trunk cabling.

Sec. 6.4.1.2

All multi-pair trunk cables shall contain only FF signals i.e., no other
signal type is allowed in a trunk cable.
