AB7312, Anybus CAN, PROFIBUS DB-9 Female to DB-9 Interface Converter

The Anybus interface will Integrate your CAN based industrial devices and equipment to a PROFIBUS control system without the need for any changes to the device. Just connect, configure and you're done. The Anybus Communicator is a proven and trusted protocol converter gateway that connects non-industrial devices with a CAN-based protocol to PROFIBUS. The gateway performs an intelligent protocol conversion and presents the CAN data to the Master PLC/Controller as easily processed I/O data. The Communicator is slim stand alone gateway designed for IP20 and DIN rail mounting, requiring a 24v power supply. The Communicator is conformance tested to current PROFIBUS specifications guaranteeing network compatibility.
