Fiber Optic Repeater Increases the Range and Availability of PROFIBUS Networks

Sept. 28, 2017
The OZD Profi 12M G22 from Belden allows PROFIBUS networks to communicate over longer distances through fiber optic signals, while guaranteeing signal reliability through integrated redundancy technology.

Data transfer rates are up to 12 Mbps, and built-in ring redundancy will automatically switch over to another ring segment without any measureable interruption (i.e., within 0 milliseconds) for maximum reliability. Enhanced capabilities include extended operating distances for PROFIBUS communications thanks to two electrical and two optical ports; high data integrity, despite harsh environments, sheltered by a robust metal housing with protective coating on the internal components and support of singlemode, multimode and plastic fiber. The repeater is suitable for real-time control networks that extend across long distances, including energy applications, such as oil and gas production or pipelines, and in the transportation industry, such as in highway traffic control systems. Other uses include water and wastewater systems and manufacturing systems that require large PROFIBUS communication networks that are reliable and safe.
