INBLOX® PROFIBUS Diagnostic Repeater

Optimize your Network Management with INBLOX® and INspektor®

In industrial production, the reliability and trouble-free operation of systems is essential. InduSol America's INBLOX® Repeater and PROFIBUS-INspektor® are advanced network infrastructure optimization solutions designed to simplify network monitoring and structuring and improve performance.

The INBLOX® Repeater efficiently structures your PROFIBUS network and enables segment-by-segment commissioning or replacement of individual components without disrupting other segments. Its diagnostic functions, including LED indicators for quick status detection and web-based data visualization, provide accurate and fast error detection.

A reliable and undisturbed operation of modern production plants and industrial installations is essential these days. Therefore, a clear structuring and monitoring is not only useful in our eyes, but also urgently needed.

InduSol America's INBLOX® provides a solution geared to the customer’s needs. The modular structure allows a variety of new requirements to the PROFIBUS network topology:

• clear displaying via LED
• physical network diagnosis
• remote access
• permanent monitoring

INBLOX® as an infrastructure component

The modular repeater INBLOX® combines the feature of signal refreshment of a usual repeater and an extended diagnosis via LED. The INBLOX® Repeater gains a clear structure of your PROFIBUS network: it builds segments in star structure, which are galvanically isolated from each other. Thus, a commissioning segment-by-segment or the replacing of single components can be made without affecting other segments. Errors can be located segment-related, because LEDs display the network status and health.

INBLOX® for a permanent network monitoring

Besides displaying of the network health via LED the INBLOX® repeater monitors permanently the logical data traffic of PROFIBUS DP and PA. All data are shown clearly on a web interface. Depending on the module you are able to monitor and analyse the physical transmission quality with quality values in a bar diagram. Additional measuring tool for monitoring the fieldbus quality is not anymore necessary.
