Overview

Features and benefits

  • Go-to solution for demanding network requirements

    The CANnector enables easy integration of multiple bus systems into a single, DIN rail mountable device. This is essential for e-mobility projects and complex industrial applications.

  • Compatibility with advanced standards

    Supports Industrial Ethernet, facilitating high-speed data transfer and network integration for complex applications – especially suited for e-mobility and varied industrial projects.

  • Extensive CAN connectivity

    The CANnector L features eight CAN channels, four of which are CAN FD capable, catering extensive connectivity for a wide range of automotive applications.

  • Multi-connectivity with various interfaces

    Additional interfaces included: 2 x LIN, 1 x Ethernet (10/100 Base-T), 2 x Digital in/out (A/E), 1 x USB 2.0 device and 2 x USB 2.0 host. Further extension options are available.

  • Improved data management for efficient engineering

    The CANnector series streamlines data management and protocol handling, optimized for automotive testing, logging and gateway operations. Ensuring easy integration and reliable performance.

  • Embedded platform with own processing power

    All applications run on the device, a PC is only needed for configuration or stimulation/visualization of data, as the actual intelligence is outsourced to the embedded platform.

  • Quick and easy configuration through ACT support

    The CANnector is supported by the Ixxat ACT (Advanced Configuration Tool), a Windows-based tool to easily configure the device via drag and drop. Most use cases can be solved by using ACT Freeware.
