Anybus Wireless Bridge - Serial over Bluetooth to Replace Profibus Cable

Anybus Support Anybus Wireless
#1

Hello,

I have a customer looking for wireless cable replacement between a controller (Profibus master) and a Profibus slave device. I’m looking at the specifications of the Anybus Wireless Bridge - Serial over Ethernet. Based on the specs, it seems like a pair of these should work. However, I would like to get confirmation of this. Has this bridge been tested with Profibus?

Thank you!
Trevor

Trevor,

With that part it seems that we have taken the stance that it does not support PROFIBUS. In the past I have been told it might work, but has not been verified. However from looking in our ticket system, we have told most customers it is flat out not supported.

I am not sure if our future wireless will support PROFIBUS, we can look into this.

Best regards,
Nick
