RD33 Daisy Chain

I noticed in the RD33 manual you can "Daisy Chain" them.
Am I right in thinking, three (3) RD33's, one connected to the Can Buss, the other two daisy chained, connected to each other, this does not create an end to the Can Buss.
I guess I'm thinking, everything else connected to the buss that is ended on both ends is ok?
One drop cable from one RD33, both other RD33's connected together. Or, better to run a drop cable from each one to a T or FI5002?
 
You can do it either way as long as you comply with NMEA 2000 rules. If daisy chained the overall length from the T connection at your backbone to the third RD30 must be less than 6 meters of total length.
