ICP DAS I-2534 and I-5534-M 4-port CAN bus switches

The I-2534 and I-5534-M, from ICP DAS, are CAN switches used to establish a connection among four CAN bus subnetworks. The switches are specially designed for integrating four CAN networks and solving problems when using star topology.

In addition to their use as CAN bridges, the switches also have more powerful features. They can extend CAN bus working distance, connect to four CAN subnetworks with different baud rates and support star or tree topology. The I-5534-M provides particularly high stability, especially in harsh environments.

The upgraded firmware has features like user-defined CAN baud rate, CAN bus message acceptance filter and routing path configuration. In addition, the firmware features the CAN-ID mapping mechanism in order to modify the received CAN-ID before process forwarding. Users can configure the CAN-ID mapping table.

When the switch receives the specific CAN-ID, the CAN-ID will change to the corresponding CAN-ID by the mapping table before it is transmitted to another CAN port. When CAN devices transmit the same CAN messages, the I-2534 or I-5534-M could change to another CAN-ID by the CAN-ID mapping mechanism.
