Overview

DeviceNet has gone wireless! Escape the limitations of hard wired systems using Matric's Wireless CAN Bridge. The Wireless CAN Bridge is ideal for any distributed application where wiring is easily damaged, or where freedom of motion is critical.

The Wireless CAN Bridge functions as a wireless modem that transfers CAN messages. Using the Wireless CAN Bridge, a single DeviceNet scanner can control nodes on either side of a wireless link with up to 200 feet of separation. A full 64 node DeviceNet can be implemented depending on scan rates and frame density. Since actual CAN messages are transferred, the Wireless CAN Bridge supports any type of CAN bus standard including CAN Open, CAN Kingdom and J1939.

Matric wireless control systems are designed to operate reliably in harsh industrial environments. Careful choice of materials and a quality design process has made Matric products the top choice for industrial process control for more than 20 years.
