    The Cimetrics B6000 is a BACnet/IP to BACnet/MSTP Router. It helps route communications between BACnet/IP and BACnet/MSTP local area networks. This allows BACnet/IP devices to communicate with BACnet devices on a BACnet/MSTP network. The Ethernet connection conforms to the BACnet/IP standard which is complemented by many network friendly features such as DHCP and password protected browser based setup screens.  This device requires no mapping because ALL data on the one side (for example, the BACnet/IP side) is transparently passed to the other side (BACnet MS/TP) and vice versa. Configuration is easy and the hardware has been designed to professional electrical standards.

    The B6000 has termination jumpers on the inside of the unit to provide for flexible bias and termination settings.

    Diagnose BACnet MS/TP communications using an Ethernet based Protocol Analyzer 

    The B6000 can be used along with the Cimetrics BAS-o-matic Protocol Analyzer to capture, decode and analyze communications on a BACnet/MSTP network. This is very useful for troubleshooting.
