Product Information
Product Description
The CANmod.router lets you receive/transmit CAN data (Classical or FD) from/to 4 isolated secondary CAN buses via 1 primary CAN bus (or USB). This compact module is 100% standalone (no PC required) and offers pro specs, daisy chaining and powerful configuration options.
When used with the CANedge, it enables you to log 5 x CAN buses (or beyond via daisy chaining).
It can be used as a powerful 4 x CAN FD to USB interface with free software/API tools.

Example: Transport muxed CAN data through tunnels
In mux-mode, traffic from/to the secondary CAN buses is routed through the primary CAN bus via tunnels (CAN frames that transport the original data). Muxed data received by a user CAN node (e.g. CANedge) can be easily demuxed to its original form via software/API tools.
Example: Interface 4 CAN buses with just 1 CAN bus (or USB)
Receive/transmit data from/to 4 x CAN buses via 1 x CAN bus (or USB) - e.g. for use by CAN loggers, ECUs or via USB streaming.
- 4 x CAN (incl. CAN FD) with basic galvanic isolation
- Power via DB9 (5-26 V and DB9 cables) or USB (5V)
- Independently configure each secondary CAN interface
- Optional silent mode and independently customizable bit-rates
- Advanced message filters and prescalers
- Configure transmit lists - and/or control via primary CAN
- Support for CAN error frame logging
- Quickly connect 4 x CAN via DB25-to-4x-DB9 adapter cable
- Daisy chain multiple modules for 8, 12, 16, ... CAN channels
Example: CANedge + CANmod.router = 5 x CAN bus data logger
The CANedge supports 2 x CAN. By adding a CANmod.router, you can now log 1 x CAN (CH1) + 4 x CAN (CH2) - or beyond.
- Power the CANmod.router via the CANedge 2nd port 5V
- Maximize 4 x CAN throughput via CAN FD routing (mux-mode)
- Easily demux routed data via MF4 converter or Python API
- Control transmission on the 4 x CAN via CANedge
- Use daisy chaining to log 1 + 8 x CAN, 1 + 12 x CAN (or beyond)
Example: Stream 4 x CAN FD via USB in SavvyCAN/Python
You can also interface the 4 x CAN buses via USB - making the CANmod.router the best value/cost CAN interface on the market.
- Receive/transmit data from 4 x CAN FD via USB
- Stream 6,000+ frames/second without frame loss
- Power the CANmod.router via USB for easy installation
- Stream raw / DBC decoded data in free SavvyCAN GUI
- Develop any integration via free Python API
- Example: Visualize decoded data in Grafana-MQTT dashboards

CONFIG (CAN-S)
Independence
Each secondary CAN channel can be independently configured (router mode is set globally)
Bit-Rate
Select between standard bit-rates (5K to 1M) or use custom bit-timing (configure per channel)
