The Anybus CompactCom family offers a range of ready-made communication interfaces that can be embedded into any industrial machine or device, enabling connectivity to all major industrial networks. The new Anybus CompactCom B40 Mini adds a soldered-on option to the existing lineup of modules and pluggable bricks.
- Compact design: Soldered directly onto the device’s carrier board, it’s 30% smaller than the pluggable brick, making it ideal for small devices.
- Efficient manufacturing: Delivered in tape-and-reel and ready for automated production through pick-and-place and Surface-Mount Device (SMD) soldering, it’s designed for high-volume and cost-effective production.
- Versatile network support: Preloaded with PROFINET, Ethernet/IP, POWERLINK, EtherCAT, Modbus TCP, and BACnet Industrial Ethernet networks, or delivered pre-set for a specific network.
These features enable device manufacturers to simplify product design and production with one design and batch for all protocols, while also optimizing stock management and providing end customers the flexibility to choose the network in the field.
