The Kvaser USBcan Light 4xHS (EAN 73-30130-00831-1) connects four high speed CAN buses to a PC through one USB port. All four channels come out on a single 26-pin HD D-SUB connector, and the box includes the HD26 to 4x D-SUB 9 splitter cable (00830-4), so each bus gets its own standard 9-pin plug. The interface is galvanically isolated and takes its power from USB, so there is no external supply to carry around. It is the classic CAN, low-cost member of the four-channel family; the Kvaser USBcan Pro 4xHS is its CAN FD counterpart. Pertech is the authorized Kvaser sales representative in Israel.
