C79000-G8976-C122-02
Introduction
The PROFIBUS OBT (Optical Bus Terminal) is a network component for use in
optical PROFIBUS DP fieldbus networks. It allows the attachment of a single
device without an integrated optical interface to the optical PROFIBUS DP. The
following figure illustrates a typical configuration.
