The Schneider Electric Andover Controls I2200AC serves as a critical expansion module within Andover's Continuum Infinet field bus architecture. This device functions as both a repeater and a 5-port active hub, specifically engineered to extend the reach of RS-485 signal transmission. It overcomes the inherent limitations of the standard Infinet bus, which typically restricts deployments to 31 devices and a maximum cable length of 4,000 feet.
