Multiplexer for MPI and PROFIBUS

The MPI/Profibus multiplexer permits connection
of up to 3 devices to one MPI or Profibus network.
The MPI/Profibus multiplexer has a 1.2 m long
connecting cable that can be plugged directly into
the CPU socket of the PLC, but also at any posi-
tion in a MPI or Profibus network. The housing of
the MPI/Profibus multiplexers are located in three

supply enough power, an external power supply
(15 - 30VDC) may be connected to the SSW7
Adapter. The SSW7 Adapter provides a connector
(9 pin Sub-D) to attach the adapter via a standard
Null-Modem cable (delivered with the SSW7) with
the PC Adapter.

PC USB S7 Adapter
A Hi-Speed Adapter to transfer data between S7
9-way Sub D sockets. Two sockets (“PG” and
“OP”) are located on the top of the MPI/Profibus
multiplexer for connecting devices. The 3rd socket
(“BUS”) on the front can be used to extend the
MPI/Profibus network, or also to connect a third
device. The “PG” socket is the only socket that has
the full MPI pin assignment. That makes it possible
to use “direct operation” on this socket via an MPI
adapter (“SSW 7” or “PC adapter”) with program-
ming software. This pin assignment is not relevant
for operation of Profibus devices. The “BUS
ON/OFF” switch switches on terminating resistors
in the MPI/Profibus multiplexer. It also switches off
the “BUS” socket. This permits operation of the
MPI/Profibus multiplexer at the end of the network
or segment-by-segment start-up of a network. The
