Description
SERCOS
• Meets Industrial SERCOS,
PROFIBUS, and INTERBUS-S
Standard
SERCOS, an acronym for SErial
Realtime COmmunications
System, is a standard digital
interface for communication in
industrial CNC applications.
SERCOS is a European
(EN 61491) and international
standard (IEC 61491). The
optical interface allows data rates
of 2, 4, 8, and 16 MBd and data
transfer between numerical
controls and drives via fiber-optic
rings, with voltage isolation and
noise immunity. The HFBR-
1505A and HFBR-2505A

PROFIBUS optical fiber version
but other connectors are allowed
as well. The HFBR-1515B and
HFBR-2515B comply fully to the
technical guideline using Plastic
Optical Fiber up to 6 MBd, and
have a guaranteed performance at
data rates up to 10 MBd.
(Typically the 12 MBd is possible
as well, but please contact Agilent
regarding the plan for the 12 MBd
device.)

(Typically the 16 MBd required
by SERCOS is possible as well
but please contact Agilent
regarding the plan for the
16 MBd device.)
INTERBUS-S
INTERBUS-S, a special open
Sensor/Actuator Bus, is finding a
broad acceptance in the factory
automation industry. The HFBR-
1505C and HFBR-2505C were
specially designed for this
application and can be used with
1 mm POF and 200 µm HCS fiber
at the specified data rates of
500 kBd and 2 MBd. The optical
transmission guideline is a
supplement of the German
National DIN E 19258 standard
draft. On the European level,
PROFIBUS
PROFIBUS, an acronym of
PROcess FIeld BUS, is an open
fieldbus standard defined for data
rates ranging from 9.6 kBd to
12 MBd in selectable steps for
wire and optical fiber. PROFIBUS
is a German national DIN 19245
standard and a European
