Bus modules MBM-PN

Bus module MBM – data collector and gateway

With the bus module MBM, all EUCHNER Modular devices can be connected to a fieldbus system. The bus module has a direct connection for one Modular device such that one MGB2 Modular or one MCM Modular can be connected directly to a bus module (direct plug). If mounted remotely, as an alternative several Modular devices can be connected using M12 cables (cable connected). The Modular connection technology makes it possible to operate, e.g., up to 6 base units on one bus module MBM. Different plug connector variants are available for connection to fieldbus systems. A switch is integrated into Ethernet-based systems such that series wiring both of the bus system and the power supply is possible.

PROFINET connection

The bus module MBM is available with one of the following PROFINET connections:
Plug connector M12 D-coded (7/8 plug and M12 plug (D-coded) according to IEC 61076-2-101) plug connector RJ45 AIDA-compliant (push-pull plug according to IEC 61076‑117, variant 14)

PROFINET Switch

Linear topology network structure due to integrated switch (supports MRP).

MLI connections (module plug connector)

An MGB2 Modular or an MCM Modular can be connected directly to a bus module (direct plug). Alternatively, the modules can be connected using commercially available connecting cables M12, 5-pin (cable connect).
