Kvaser Air Bridge M12, a compact, advanced wireless device that seamlessly bridges CAN networks, with easy setup, free pairing and flexible configuration.

Kvaser Air Bridge M12 is a small, yet advanced, wireless CAN bridge that can be used to form a CAN system bridge between two CAN networks. This radio solution can be used to connect CAN based control systems and test equipment in scenarios and situations where it is desirable to replace cabling and related parts.

The Kvaser Air Bridge M12 is designed for ease of use, while retaining a certain flexibility for the user by means of configuration; choose between ’one to one’, or ’one to any’. With uniquely low and predictable latency compared to other wireless technologies, the Air Bridge M12 is well-suited for control tasks in remote-control applications with systems that require rapid response. The Air Bridge Utility CLI enables a user to commission Air Bridge M12 devices in a simple and straight-forward fashion.
