ProfiHub B5Profihub B5 - 5 Channel spur line repeater for PROFIBUS DP


After the success of the ProfiHub A5, PROCENTEC launches the ProfiHub B5 for IP20 applications.

The ProfiHub is a network component for PROFIBUS DP installations to implement long multi-device spur lines and backbone structures with star/tree segments. It has the functionality of 5 isolated repeaters. This allows network structures with extended spur lines that individually handle a maximum of 31 devices and a length equal to the main bus. The spur lines have short circuit protection and the maximum transmission speed is 12 Mbps. The ProfiHub B5 distinguishes itself with its metal housing which makes it perfect for EMC sensitive environments and it supports the DB9 connector as well as screw terminals.
