The C-Bus series Building Network Adapter (CBNA) provides connection of a Honeywell Controller Communication Bus to an industry standard 10/100BaseT Ethernet LAN. It delivers exceptional price/performance to meet the requirements of both building owners and service providers.

With its combination of scalable performance, density and low per-port pricing, the CBNA allows network-layer capabilities to be extended to a much wider range of network configurations and environments. Customers can now gain the advantages of high-performance network and services, including traffic management, to more locations throughout the network.

The CBNA provides a single RS-485 DC coupled C-Buscompatible communication channel for Excel 800 and Excel 5000® family devices with up to 76.8 kbps and single RS-232 and 10/100 BaseT interfaces.

The CBNA uses the LAN connection to provide a seamless communication to the requesting device.

Status information, like LAN communication activity, field bus traffic communication and system heartbeat of the CBNA is indicated by LEDs on the device front.
