Fieldbus Infrastructure

Fieldbus Foundation and PROFIBUS PA

The new modular attachment for fieldbus components from Phoenix Contact establishes an infrastructure connection between the process fieldbus control system and the field devices. This new concept combines our competence in industrial electronic components with that in data communication in high-performance fieldbus infrastructure solutions.

Serial Converter and Repeater

To connect the serial communication interfaces to the S800^®I/O system, a wide product range of converters and repeaters are available from Phoenix Contact. To fullfill the high demands of reliable communication, copper based ethernet and serial signals are converted to immune fiber optic signals. Simple devices convert different serial interfaces to each other. All devices are DIN-rail mountable and supplied with standard 24 V DC power. The commissioning and maintenance are simplified with extensive diagnostic and setting possibilities.
