Product Description – ABB DSBC 173A 3BSE005883R1
The ABB DSBC 173A 3BSE005883R1 is a Bus Extender Module used in the Advant Controller 100 Series for the S100 I/O system. It serves as a slave module in a bus extension setup, typically used with the DSBC 172 master unit, to extend the physical location of S100 I/O modules over a longer distance. It enables distributed installations while maintaining high-speed, synchronized data communication between the main controller and remote I/O racks.
This module is a critical component in decentralized automation architectures, especially where process signals are spread across large plants. It ensures integrity and timing of communication between controllers and I/O units across the extended bus system.
