Convenient solution for transmission of CAN-bus messages in distributed systems
Reliable communication at high bus load and precise time stamps for the received CAN messages

Based on the successful USB-CANmodul models, the USB-CANmodul16 combines up to 16 CAN channels in one device, which are connected to the PC via 2 high-speed USB2.0 interfaces (with a data transfer rate of 480Mbps). This provides a highly convenient as well as cost-efficient solution for the transmission of CAN-bus messages in distributed systems with centralized data acquisition. Thus the USB-CANmodul16 is suitable e.g. for the use in the automotive sector, in research facilities or even laboratories.
Like all versions of the SYS TEC USB-CAN interface series, the USB-CANmodul16 can be used with CAN based high layer protocols like CANopen, SDS, DeviceNet or J1939 due to the transparent tunneling of the CAN messages.
The newly integrated 32-bit CPU guarantees reliable communication even at high bus loads and provides precise time stamps for the CAN messages.
The PC driver allows easy plug&play installation and supports simultaneous operation of up to 64 CAN channels on one PC. Supporting the high number of communication channels, this USB-CAN fieldbus module is also ideally suited for service and maintenance tasks in CAN-bus systems.
The USB-CANmodul16 complies with the EMC directive 2014/30/EU.
* On the software side you need for e.g. J1939 our CANinterpreter Add On, as well as a J1939 protocol stack.
