Classification and purpose
Classification
The devices of the UBR (Universal BACnet Router) product family, with
their different interfaces, serve as BACnet router between different
BACnet networks.
Purpose
Router from BACnet IP to BACnet MS/TP. The router can be used as a
BACnet router to connect a MS/TP bus to a BACnet IP network.
Standalone BBMD
The router can act as a BBMD in BACnet networks. The BBMD
functionality is used to transport broadcast messages across network
boundaries (IP switches) and thus make them available in the other
subnet. Without the use of BBMDs, broadcast messages are not
transmitted over an IP switch.
