EthernetCANbusDeviceNet

It can be used as a message repeater to expand network distances, as well as to connect different CAN networks together. By transmit the messages is immaterially whether the CAN networks have different transfer rates or the messages those are a part of different higher protocols, such as CANopen® and a proprietary protocol. A flexibly adjustable filtering logic can accept freely selectable identifiers and transfer them to the other network. The CAN messages are forwarded to the respective other CAN network according to the store-forward principle and sent out again. With the CAN bridge, the CAN networks are physically decoupled (electrical isolation) and the bus load is reduced on both CAN networks. The CAN bridge allows a flexible design of the network topology Enlargement of the network scope Connect different CAN networks (different transmission rates / messages, those are part of different higher protocols) Physical disconnection (electrical isolation) Reduced bus load on both CAN networks Automatic detection of transmission rates Easy configuration mode
