I understand that the motor controllers have a robust pass-through of the CAN lines; it would take a catastrophic motor controller failure to disrupt the daisy chain.

Oh ok, that makes sense. Would you recommend using these at all: https://www.amazon.com/Wago-222-415-...AO9N0B7PPXTIQ? Or is it preferable to stick with the two connection options mentioned above?

Regarding the motor controllers, will the CAN connection work even if one of he motor controllers stops receiving power? Does transmission of the CAN signal rely on the motor controllers to be on? Or does the CAN signal get transmitted though the motor controllers even if it does not receive power?

Thanks once again so much.
