Wireless Bridge II
Anybus Wireless Bridge enables you create a robust
wireless connecon between two points in an industrial
Ethernet network. This second generaon of the
proven and trusted product can communicate via both
Bluetooth and WLAN and is ideal for communicaon
through hazardous areas or hard-to-reach locaons
where cables are not desirable.
Wirelessly bridge industrial Ethernet networks
Use the Anybus Wireless Bridge to create a wireless connecon
in a PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus-TCP or BACnet/IP network.
You can use the same hardware for both Bluetooth or WLAN
communicaon.
Point-to-point or multipoint
Anybus Wireless Bridge is oen used as an Ethernet cable
replacement (point-to-point communicaon). But it can also
be used as an access point for several WLAN/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.
• Easy conguraon via push buon or via web conguraon
pages.
• Full compability with Anybus Wireless Bolt — a wireless
product for machine mounng.
• Compable with PROFIsafe requirements.
WLAN or Bluetooth?
• Allows higher data throughput.
• Wide market acceptance.
• Wireless LAN client adapter in an
infrastructure setup
• Even more robust and noise
immune wireless link since
Bluetooth switches between
dierent frequencies.
AFH (Adapve Frequency Hopping)
automacally avoids noisy channels.
• Preferred physical media for
wireless PROFINET (PNO) and
approved for PROFIsafe.

EXAMPLE 2: Access point
Replacing an industrial Ethernet cable.
The Wireless Bridge can act as an access point connecng up to seven dierent slaves.
This example shows connecon to several Anybus Wireless Bolts. (The Anybus Wireless
Bridge and Bolt work seamlessly together.)
