2. Safety
2.1. General Safety
CAUTION
This equipment emits RF energy in the ISM (Industrial, Scienc, Medical) band. Make sure that all
medical devices used in proximity to this equipment meet appropriate suscepbility specicaons
for this type of RF energy.
CAUTION
This equipment contains parts that can be damaged by electrostac discharge (ESD). Use ESD
prevenon measures to avoid damage.
CAUTION
This equipment is recommended for use in both industrial and domesc environments. For industrial
environments it is mandatory to use the funconal earth connecon to comply with immunity
requirements. For domesc environments the funconal earth must be used if a shielded Ethernet
cable is used, in order to meet emission requirements.
2.2. External Antenna Restricons
For models with external antenna, only use antennas that are cered for use with this equipment.
Using external antennas that are not cered for use with this equipment will invalidate its cercaons and
make it non-compliant with the regulaons for radio equipment.
A list of cered antennas can be found at www.anybus.com/support.
2.3. Intended Use
The intended use of this equipment is as a communicaon interface and gateway. The equipment receives and
transmits data on various physical levels and connecon types.
If this equipment is used in a manner not specied by the manufacturer, the protecon provided by the
equipment may be impaired.

3. Preparaon
3.1. Support and Resources
For addional documentaon and soware downloads, FAQs, troubleshoong guides and technical support,
please visit www.anybus.com/support.
TIP
Have the product arcle number available, to search for the product specic support web page. You
nd the product arcle number on the product cover.
3.2. Oponal Equipment
Bridge II CAN can be mounted on a standard DIN rail using the oponal DIN mounng kit.
The DIN mounng kit is not included with the Bridge II CAN. For informaon about ordering the DIN mounng
kit, please visit www.anybus.com.
3.3. Network Environment
Ensure that you have all the necessary informaon about the capabilies and restricons of your local network
environment before installaon.
3.4. Placement
Antenna Consideraons
For models with internal antenna the characteriscs of the antenna should be considered when choosing the
placement and orientaon of the Bridge II CAN.
See also Internal Antenna Characteriscs (page 65).
Required Distance Between Devices
For opmal recepon, wireless devices require a zone between them clear of objects that could otherwise
obstruct or reect the signal. To avoid signal interference, a minimum distance of 50 cm between the devices
should be observed.
Figure 1. Required minimum distance between devices
See Wireless Technology Basics (page 64).
Anybus® Wireless Bridge II CAN™Preparaon
Page 4 of 72 SCM-1202-184 2.0

3.5. When to Use Bluetooth or WLAN
Use Bluetooth when:
• The wireless link has an Anybus Wireless Bolt or Anybus Wireless Bridge II at both ends.
• An interrupon-free connecon is more important than data throughput speed.
• Interference robustness is important, e.g. in an industrial environment.
Use WLAN when:
•Connecng to other types of wireless devices or a WLAN infrastructure.
• High data throughput speed is more important than connecon reliability.
• Large le transfers are expected.
• WLAN channel frequency planning is possible.
3.6. Bluetooth Limitaons
Due to dierent implementaons of Bluetooth by dierent manufacturers, Bluetooth PAN (Personal Area
Network) may not work with some devices.
WLAN 5 GHz cannot be used at the same me as WLAN 2.4 GHz or Bluetooth.
