Description
Product Overview
The ABB DSCA114 is a high-performance communication board designed for ABB’s S800 I/O distributed control system, serving as a critical component for enabling seamless data transmission between industrial automation devices. Engineered to support RS-232/V.24 serial communication protocols, the DSCA114 facilitates connectivity between I/O racks and higher-level controllers like ABB’s AC 800M series in harsh industrial environments 14. Unlike standard communication modules, it features asynchronous data transfer capabilities with baud rates up to 1 Mbps, ensuring reliable operation in applications requiring real-time data exchange 7.
The DSCA114 integrates seamlessly with ABB’s S800 I/O backplane architecture, supporting up to 16 I/O modules per extended rack. Its hot-swappable design allows maintenance without system shutdown, while real-time diagnostics monitor network health, voltage levels, and temperature in environments ranging from -20°C to +60°C 315. With an IP65-rated enclosure and compliance with CE, UL, CSA certifications, the module is suitable for demanding industrial settings such as petrochemical plants, steel mills, and water treatment facilities 319.

Main Features and Advantages
Extended Communication Reach:
The DSCA114 extends the S800 I/O system’s communication capabilities up to 1,200 meters using twisted-pair cables, making it ideal for large-scale industrial facilities such as automotive assembly lines or offshore platforms 116. Its signal regeneration technology ensures zero data loss even in high-interference environments, reducing downtime by 40% compared to non-extended systems 7.

Modular System Integration:
Compatible with ABB’s DSPC172 backplane and DPW11S power supply, the DSCA114 supports scalable configurations from small panels to multi-rack installations 15. Its IP65-rated enclosure allows direct installation in dusty or wet environments (e.g., cement plants or food processing lines) without additional protective housing 3.
