MULTIrep, PROFIBUS repeater / hubs
Better structure. More stable operation.
The PROFIBUS Repeaters MULTIrep X2, X5 and X7 not only meet all requirements for modern, flexible PROFIBUS cabling. Due to the integrated interference suppression function, they also ensure the greatest possible stability of data communication.
Thanks to the integrated diagnostics, clearly visible status LED and automatic interference suppression, MULTIrep PROFIBUS repeaters allow easy and targeted troubleshooting.
Raising the signals to standard level
The use of these repeaters enables the extension of a PROFIBUS network to a maximum of 126 stations as well as the extension of the speed-dependent cable length. A maximum of 32 stations (31 + repeater) are permitted per segment. The MULTIrep regenerates the voltage signal in two, five or seven directions and raises it to the PROFIBUS standard level. Physically, this results in up to seven segments which are galvanically isolated from each other.
Top features of the MULTIrep series
- Extension of your PROFIBUS project, up to 126 stations (star structure possible)
- Signal stabilization / regeneration for trouble-free data communication
- Reporting of logical and physical anomalies in PROFIBUS data traffic
- Error isolation on individual segments through automatic filtering
- Simplified diagnosis and accelerated troubleshooting through segment delimitation with error status

The MULTIrep series, with the compact basic repeater X2 and the multiple repeaters X5 and X7, forms the ideal basis for a robust star-shaped PROFIBUS topology. In addition to the compact design, the MULTIrep repeaters convince by their easy handling. The PROFIBUS cabling is realized by the proven and robust D-SUB connectors. There are no error-prone DIP switches or terminal points. A special feature of the MULTIrep series is the integrated diagnostic function. The data traffic is permanently monitored and the health status of each segment is indicated by LEDs.
