Hello Rtyrt

I would say yes but what exactly do yo uuse the Phoenix contact Repeater for, to expand the range or to connect bus segments?

Here you find the Manuals of the Siemens Repeater:

Hello,

Yes, you should be able to swap repeaters with no problems.

The connections will be straightforward PortA A/B on the Phoenix will be A1/B1 on the Siemens repeater. Likewise PortB A/B will be A2/B2.

Remember to set the termination switches on if your repeater is at the beginning/end of the network.

Also, its worth noting the PG socket on the Siemens repeaters is connected to the A1/B1 side if you need a programming socket for network analysis.

Regards,

Craig.
