DP/EIB Link
The DP/EIB link allows a connection between the two open standard systems for
industrial automation PROFIBUS-DP and building automation instabus EIB. This
provides an ideal connection between the high performance of the PROFIBUS
components and the extreme flexibility of the instabus EIB system.
