The 7EX470.50-1 CAN Bus Controller from B&R Automation is a network-capable EX470 module that serves as the CAN bus interface for a B&R automation system, enabling direct connection of CAN devices to a control network. Operated from 24 V DC, it draws about 14.5 W and provides two CAN interfaces with electrical isolation for robust, multi-node CAN communication. The module supports CAN data rates up to 500 kbit/s and uses a 9-pin DSUB connector for CAN I/O, aligning with the EX470 bus-controller family’s 2003-era architecture. As part of B&R’s EX470 line, it enables integrated CAN bus communication within industrial automation environments.
