The modular CAN repeater CAN-CR200 with two CAN interfaces
and one CAN backbone interface can be used to improve the
load capacity of the CAN bus with nodes, to establish a physical
coupling of CAN bus systems or to insert a galvanic isolation.
The CAN-CR200 creates the necessary flexibility to optimize the
structure of CAN networks and to free CAN networks from the
restriction to the bus structure. It can be used to implement tree
or star topologies as well as stub lines. For creating star or tree
topologies, several CAN-CR200 can be connected to a CAN-hub
via the integrated backbone bus.
The CAN-CR200 separates a defective segment from the rest of
the network, allowing the remaining network to continue
working.
