Selection Notes
The second RS 485 port is the reason to pick this card over the single-port CP 5623: it runs an independent DP master on one port and a DP device connection (244-byte I/O) on the other, from the same PC. Master capacity and DPV0/DPV1/DPV2 support match the CP 5623 exactly, so choose this card specifically when the PC also needs to appear as a slave on a second PROFIBUS network rather than only mastering one.
Applications
PC stations that both master a PROFIBUS DP network and act as a DP device on a separate PROFIBUS segment, such as a gateway or supervisory PC bridging two independent bus systems.
