» Wiring for CAN bus can be complex and space-consuming. Modern splitter connectors, such as the Trombetta 99-0650 CAN bus control module shown above, offer a compact and easy-to-install alternative.
Here’s a look at two effective connector splitter series that are designed specifically for automotive CAN bus:
Amphenol Sine Systems AT04 3-pin splitters reduce cost by eliminating Y adapters and extra harnesses typically used to provide additional connections to the CAN bus, while at the same time allowing for shorter cable runs to each device.
Trombetta J1939 sealed automotive style CAN
bus splitters provide a cost-effective and space-
efficient way of connecting multiple devices to the J1939 CAN bus in a variety of connector sizes and configurations.
CAN bus technology offers considerable cost savings and efficiencies for vehicle manufacturers and upfitters. Working with CAN protocol can also come with challenges. Numerous CAN bus interfaces and modules are available for vehicles, with a range of corresponding cable types and connector combinations to choose
from. Cable and connections serve as the backbone of the CAN communications system. When chosen properly, they will help to ensure overall CAN bus performance and reliability.
