Fiber PROFIBUS Optic Module ComBricks

The ComBricks fiber optic module enables PROFIBUS signal transmission between ComBricks modules or between ComBricks and other PROFIBUS fiber optic modules from other manufacturers. Optimal solution for creating a PROFIBUS galvanically isolated connection over long distances (up to 3 km), with the possibility of creating a point-to-point or star (hub) topology. Supports redundant module connections. Optical cables are connected to the module via 4 metallic ST/BFOC connectors.

Reliably communicates with or replaces SIEMENS OLM modules and modules from other well-known manufacturers. Can be combined seamlessly with all ComBricks optical and other modules in one assembly. It is therefore suitable for easy interconnection of metallic and optical cables, for example in locations with strong EMC interference.

Possible network topology designs:

Module configuration and LED signalling

Settings via Dip switches on the bottom of the module:

LED signalling on the front of the module:

Settings via the web interface of the control station:

 
Module status on the web interface of the control station, unlike the ComBricks XM/SM/MM versions, this module does not have optical signal quality monitoring or alarm options based on optical signal status.
