Note that RS422 and RS485 networks are typically limited by specifications to about 30 devices on the bus. In order to support your 100 devices you are going to have to setup 3 or 4 sub-busses and install repeaters at the appropriate points.

Max 32 nodes is the standard and the above is/was true, but today there are "1/2 load" 485 transcievers that allow 64 nodes, "1/4 load" 485 transcievers that allow 128 nodes and "1/8 load" 485 transcievers that allow 256 nodes.
