4 Port CAN Hub

Description PT Motorsport CAN hub is an excellent compliment to your vehicles engine management system. Available with two different mounting options, simply change the rear panel: Flat – lay your CAN hub down on the mounting surface to keep cables flat against the panel for neater cable management. Upright – stand your CAN hub up perpendicular with the mounting surface for easier connecting and disconnecting of devices. CANbus or Controller Area Network(CAN) is a very robust communications medium that is used in nearly every OEM vehicle manufactured today. It’s gaining popularity in the Automotive Aftermarket now too as a very convenient way to pass data from one device to any other device on the network, they don’t even need to be from the same manufacturer, so long as they all speak CAN. When you’re adding multiple devices to your CAN network, designing the wiring to enable the CAN network function correctly can be challenging. Especially when you’re allowing for further integration down the track. This is where the CANhub comes in, simply connect all devices to the hub and be confident the CANbus wiring will function as expected and allow capacity for future expansion, or maybe just the occasional connection of a temporary device, such as a logger or display for a specific event. PT Motorsport have spent a long time to ensure the reliability, repeatability and robustness of the connection to the CANhub is as good as it can be, with all terminals located exactly to the Deutsch connector specification ensuring a reliable connection with a satisfying click from the locking tab to boot. Combine this CANhub with some Custom made CAN Patch leads and you will have a very professional installation of your equipment. Custom CANhubs available, any number and configuration of ports.

If the CAN wires are not across pins 3 and 4, the solder pads on the PCB for adding a terminating resistor cannot be used.
