Four-channel CAN/CAN FD repeater
The Ixxat CAN-CR300 four-interface CAN/CAN FD repeater improves the load capacity of the CAN bus, establishes a physical coupling of bus systems and provides galvanic isolation. It offers the flexibility to optimize network structures and frees them from CAN bus structural constraints for optimized operation.
Key points
- Rugged industrial use — Designed for industrial environments, meeting high requirements for robustness, temperature ranges and safety.
- CAN FD network design flexibility — Helps optimize CAN/CAN FD network structures by enabling extended topologies (stub lines, star and tree topologies).
- Fast, transparent operation — Minimal impact on real-time behaviour, equivalent to a short line length (approx. 35 m/175 ns delay). Transparent transmission, compatible with all higher-layer protocols.
- Savings through simplified wiring — Optimized topologies allow simplified wiring, reducing the number of cables and installation and maintenance costs.
- Increased network reliability — Increased system reliability through electrical isolation of CAN/CAN FD segments and power up to 1 kV. This strengthens device protection against electronic damage caused by voltage spikes.
- Network monitoring and fault recovery — In the event of a disturbance, the repeater automatically disconnects the affected segment and restores it once the fault has been resolved.
