1. Introduction
1.1 Overview
PROFIBUS is an open, digital communication system with a wide range of applications,
particularly in the fields of factory automation and process automation. PROFIBUS is suitable for
both fast, time-critical applications and complex communication tasks. PROFIBUS-DP is a
famous protocol that enables simple, fast, cyclic and deterministic process data exchange
between Master and assigned Slave.
The PROFI-2510 is a PROFIBUS repeater used to establish a physical coupling of two or more
segments of a CAN bus system. According to the PROFIBUS specification, up to 32 PROFIBUS
devices are allowed per segment. Connecting via PROFI-2510, the division of a PROFIBUS
system into several subsystems increases the maximum number of bus nodes.
The PROFI-2541(SC) / PROFI-2542(SC) are PROFIBUS to Fiber Converters and they are the
economic solution for applications which require protecting the data transmission from electrical
exposure, surges, lightning or chemical corrosion.
