Which abb module is used to profibus-dp to fiber optic and fiber optic to profibus-dp communication for S800 I\Os?

In our case we have CI854 module with AC800M controller and remote I\O panel (S800 I\Os).

I want to know that for long distance communications is there any module (ABB make) for profibus-dp communication via FO(Fiber Optic)?

Can we directly communicate via Fo?

Hello,

ABB do not make those modules but you can check attached link to OZD electrical/optical profibus converters.

Theres modules were used in tests in lab when I was there.

There are other modules from Hirschmann etc. available too.

the FO/media converter is transparent to profibus deivces ( you do have to adjust bus parameters to take account of delay introduced by convertion process etc). If you are looking for direct FO conection to slave, I am afraid its not possible yet. Maybe there a couple of solutions avaliable in market but we haven't tested those and can't recommend.

I prefer personally Phoenix converters (example of model you can see in the attached file). There is possible to build clever architectures which cover specifica needs (ring / star, serial and so on - see pdf file). There is available several models with specific solution and price. All is about your preferences.
