The segment coupler is used for coupling and power supply of Profibus PA networks. The coupler combines two different networks for data transmission and delivers the current for the Profibus DP segment. Data are transmitted from the Profibus DP master via the segment coupler to the PA field device. In conjunction with Profibus DP, the segment coupler supports a baud rate of up to 12 Mbit/s.
