Description
The assembly rail mountable CAN repeater CRep N transmits and amplifies CAN signals in a protocol transparent way. CRep N allows the design of flexible wiring topologies. Star and tree structures as well as stub lines can be realized. The maximum data rate in comparison to a line structure can be increased by a suitable topology. For the most common occuring errors the integrated error suppression reduces the influence of faulty segments to intact sections. Besides technical improvements the selection of the most favourable network topology can lower the installation costs. Both CAN connections behave like one single physical CAN node. An increase in the maximum number of nodes can be achieved by separation of the network into several segments, each of them connected by CRep N. Each sub network can then manage a maximum number of CAN nodes only restricted by the transceiver driver capabilities. With transmission over long distances CRep N allows signal recovering.
