ProfiHub
A5 - 5 Channel DP Spur Repeater |
|
 |

Introduction
ProfiHub A5 is an advanced, flexible and robust network
component for PROFIBUS DP installations. It enables long
multi-device spur lines and backbone structures with star/tree
segments in IP 65 applications.
PROFIBUS DP is a high-speed communication bus that has to comply
with strict rules concerning spur lines, because of possible
reflections that could lead to communication disturbances.
If spur lines or star segments are required, costly investments
in repeaters have to be done.
The ProfiHub A5 is a perfect economic solution to implement
reliable spur lines in high-speed DP networks. It has the functionality
of 5 galvanic isolated transparent repeaters. This allows network
structures with extended spur lines that individually can handle
a maximum of 31 devices and a length equal to the main bus.
Create reliable, flexible and object oriented
DP installations with the ProfiHub A5.
The ProfiHub A5 is essential to obtain
more control during maintenance and upgrading of the network.

The ground rail has to be mounted
inside the casing to supply a common grounding area for all
cable shielding. It improves the EMC behaviour and it supplies
a good construction for vibrations. Not useable for capacitive
grounding! |
