Embedded CC-Link IE Field slave interface
Anybus CompactCom B40 CC-Link IE Field brick for PCB-assembly
Add your own connectors and peripherals
The B40 Brick is a brick for PCB-assembly and gives you the flexibility to add your own connectors and network isolation. An alternative is to use the ready-made connector boards from HMS. The B40 Brick is ideal for embedded device manufacturers who are looking for a semi-integrated solution where connector flexibility, size and cost are key elements.
Interchangeable with other networks
By implementing the CompactCom B40 into your product line, you will have instant embedded access to any other industrial network by simply plugging in another Anybus brick .
Get real-time CC-Link IE Field communication
The Anybus CompactCom B40 enables fast communication between your device and the CC-Link IE Field network. The module supports generic device profiles and comes with a dual port switch implemented in the network processor — the award-winning Anybus NP40. With its fast data transfer and very low latency, it's the perfect match for even the most demanding industrial applications.
Features and benefits
- A ready-made embedded CC-Link IE Field slave interface for PCB assembly
- Easy mounting to your host PCB design
- CLPA pre-certified for network compliance (enables faster network certification)
- Fast data transfer: Up to 1536 bytes of process data in each direction
- Very low latency
- Event-based interface method enables easy access to input and output data at any time
