Portable BASrouter SHEET Portable BASrouter — BACnet® Multi-Network Router The Portable BASrouter provides stand-alone routing between BACnet networks such as BACnet/IP, BACnet Ethernet, and BACnet MS/TP — thereby allowing the system integrator to mix BACnet network technologies within a single BACnet internetwork. There are two physical communication ports on the Portable BASrouter. One is a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port and the other is an isolated MS/TP port. Configuration is accomplished via a web page. Versatile Routing Between … • BACnet/IP and BACnet MS/TP • BACnet Ethernet and BACnet MS/TP • BACnet/IP and BACnet Ethernet • BACnet/IP and BACnet Ethernet and BACnet MS/TP IP Network Support • Web server for commissioning and troubleshooting • Communication diagnostic web page Flexible Communications • 10/100 Mbps Ethernet with auto-negotiation and Auto-MDIX • Optically isolated MS/TP port • MS/TP baud rates range from 9.6–76.8 kbps Convenient Installation • Powered via a USB port in a laptop • Compact plastic case can be easily stored

Data Sheet — Portable BASrouter Portable BASrouter — BACnet® Multi-Network Router The Portable BASrouter is housed in a plastic case that is powered from a USB port on a laptop computer. There is one MS/TP port and one 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port. The MS/TP port offers an optically-isolated transceiver. It has a removable 3-pin terminal block for the EIA-485 connection. Logically, 255 devices can be addressed. Physically, the number of devices depends upon device loading. Up to 31 full-load EIA-485 devices can share the same MS/TP bus segment as the Portable BASrouter. For half-load devices, there...

Wiring Diagrams The Portable BASrouter features a USB 2.0 Full Speed Device Port that accepts the Type B plug of the USB cable that is included in the box. It takes 5 VDC from a host computer, while typically drawing 400 mA of current. It can operate from a USB hub, if desired, and no driver installation is needed. The device incorporates a 3-wire optically-isolated EIA-485 interface for the MS/TP connection — allowing better circuit protection and noise immunity. To connect 2-wire MS/TP Bus Wiring to other 3-wire devices, simply make a one-to-one connection to the other devices. But when connecting to...
