Wireless Bridge
Anybus Wireless Bridge enables you create a robust wireless
connecon to an industrial device. The soluon is ideal for
communicaon through hazardous areas or hard-to-reach
locaons where cables are not desirable.
Wireless transmission is made via Bluetooth or WLAN technology
and there are several versions available for both serial and
industrial Ethernet communicaon.
Serial or industrial Ethernet
Anybus Wireless Bridge comes in dierent versions for serial
communicaon (RS232/422/485) or industrial Ethernet (for
example PROFINET, EtherNet/IP,
Modbus-TCP and BACnet/IP).
Point-to-point or multipoint
Wireless Bridge is oen used as cable replacement in point-to-
point communicaon (serial or Ethernet). But it can also be used
as an access point for several Bluetooth nodes within range.
Features and benets
• Range up to 400 meters.
• Rugged design with IP65-classed housing.
• Unique method to handle interference disturbances
without consequences to the Bluetooth conformity or the
interoperability with other devices.
• Support for redundant wireless networks for crical
applicaons.
• Easy conguraon via push buon or via web conguraon
pages.
WLAN or Bluetooth?
• Provides higher bandwidth
(wider frequency range)
• Point-to-point
• Wireless LAN client adapter in
an infrastructure setup
• Even more reliable and noise
immune wireless link since
Bluetooth switches between
dierent frequencies.
• Point-to-point or mulpoint
• Preferred physical media for
wireless PROFINET (PNO) and
approved for PROFIsafe
