HSC303 High Speed Coupler Profibus-DP/PA

The module enables communicating with high transmission rates, up to 12 Mbits/s, with PROFIBUS DP masters and transform the signal in the field standard, PROFIBUS PA with fixed 31,25 kbits. All of this transparently, without the need for configurations. It supports up to 124 PROFIBUS PA slaves and detects the PROFIBUS DP network communication rate automatically.
