B&R X20cHB2886 Hub expansion module
he X20BC8084 POWERLINK bus controller and the X20HB8884 module are equipped with an integrated
link selector function. An additional 1 or 2 slots are available, depending on the bus base used. The active
X20HB2885 hub expansion module can be operated in these slots.
The active hub expansion module is equipped with one integrated 2x hub and allows redundant wiring. This
means that the connection between the two ports remains intact if there is a failure in the bus controller
or Compact Link Selector. The status of the module and network are indicated by LEDs.

The X20 Compact-S series of controllers is available in different versions.
In this way, the customer gets the product that best meets the requirements
of the machine both technically and economically.
The controller offers a wide range of communication options via POWERLINK,
Ethernet, USB and RS232. Optional RS485 or CAN interfaces are also available.
If an application requires additional interfaces,
the controller can be modularly expanded with 1 or 2 X20 interface slots.
