1. A network system comprising:

  • a network comprising;

    a network bus electrically connected to at least one network device; and

    a network controller for directing conummications with the at least one network device via said network bus, wherein said network controller is capable of selectively operating in either mode selected from the group consisting of a synchronous mode and an asynchronous mode; and

    at least one suppression assembly electrically connected between said network bus and respective network devices, wherein each suppression assembly is capable of limiting electromagnetic emissions from the respective network devices communicating via said network bus, and wherein each suppression assembly comprises;

    an isolation transformer including a primary coil located proximate a respective network device and a secondary coil located proximate said network bus, wherein the primary coil and secondary coil include a primary center tap and a secondary center tap, respectively; and

    a resistor electrically connected between the secondary center tap and a ground.
