Based on our previous discussions and a web search, the ABB DSBC170 appears to be a Bus Repeater Master within ABB’s Master series. Here’s a breakdown of its functionalities and what you might find useful:
-
Function (Bus Repeater Master):
- The DSBC170 acts as a fiber optic interface to the Optical ModuleBus. It’s used in redundancy configurations where each module connects to different optical ModuleBus lines, but all connect to the same electrical ModuleBus. This redundancy setup helps ensure system reliability in case of a fiber optic line failure.
-
Applications (Redundant Industrial Networks):
-
- The DSBC170 would be used in applications requiring a high level of network reliability within ABB’s Master series systems, such as:
- Factory automation (critical production processes)
- Power generation and distribution (ensuring reliable communication for control systems)
- Transportation systems (railway control systems)
- The DSBC170 would be used in applications requiring a high level of network reliability within ABB’s Master series systems, such as:
-
