PCAN-Repeater DR
Isolate two CAN segments by up to 5 kV on a DIN rail
The PCAN-Repeater DR provides galvanic isolation of up to 5 kV inside a High-speed CAN bus: the two CAN ports are isolated from each other and from the power supply. It forwards all traffic, error frames included, 1:1 between the ports, behaves passively and is transparent to the bus. LEDs show bus load and errors.
Use it for long stub lines or to isolate two bus segments in industrial installations. It is designed for CAN CC and can also run in CAN FD buses with data bit rates up to 4 Mbit/s and nominal bit rates up to 1 Mbit/s. Note that a repeater does not lengthen a CAN bus: its transit delay of about 115 ns (about 23 m of cable) reduces the total length allowed at a given bit rate.
