Cimetrics is excited to announce our same reliable ARCNET router in a modern updated hardware.The BR2 router provides routing between BACnet networks such as BACnet/IP, BACnet ARCNET, BACnet Ethernet, and virtual or tunneled BACnet networks. This allows integrators to mix and match BACnet network datalink technologies within a single BACnet Internetwork. The BR2 router has two communications ports in all cases. One is always a 10/100 Ethernet port and the other is a RG62 Coaxial cable or RS485 twisted pair.
• Connects BACnet systems from different suppliers like Trane BCUs
• Enables campus-wide control systems
• Uses industry's leading BACnet OEM protocol stack (Cimetrics BACstac)
• High bandwidth design
• Easy browser-based configuration
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
To commission BACnet ARCNET devices one has generally been forced to
use a special PC hardware ARCNET interface to communicate with the
ARCNET RS485 or Coaxial LAN. The secret is that most BACnet ARCNET
software can be run against BACnet/IP and communicate via BACnet
Routing to BACnet ARCNET to achieve this configuration/setup
connectivity. The Cimetrics BR2-A can accomplish this connectivity.
The
BACnet/IP port on the BR2-A connects to the PC's Ethernet/TCPIP port
using a standard CAT5 cable. The ARCNET port connects to the target
BACnet ARCNET LAN (93 Ohm RG62 Coaxial cable or RS485 twisted pair plus
ground cable in general). The BR-A can be powered from any 120VAC
source. The BR2-A is setup using its embedded webpages. The baud rate
of the BACnet ARCNET port is setup to match the baud rate and network
number of the existing ARCNET LAN.
BACnet details:
• BACnet 135.1-2003 ASHRAE & ISO standard
• BBMD and FD (Foreign Device) support
• BACnet/ARCNET = Co-ax or RS485 twisted pair
• BACnet/IP or BACnet/HTTP with optional encryption
