Phoenix Contact 2862246 PROFIBUS DP Bus Coupler – IL PB BK DP/V1-PAC
The Phoenix Contact IL PB BK DP/V1-PAC is a high-performance bus coupler designed to link Inline I/O terminals with a PROFIBUS DP fieldbus. It supports up to 63 local bus devices and 16 PCP (parameter channel protocol) devices, providing streamlined integration of modular I/O stations into industrial PROFIBUS networks.
Equipped with a D-SUB-9 connector, this DIN-rail-mounted unit includes built-in surge protection and a labeling field, making it well-suited for robust industrial applications. Note: This model does not support PROFIsafe or intrinsically safe modules—use the IL PB BK DI8 DO4/EF-PAC for those applications.
