Overview
The DVT Isolated BOB (CON-IBOB) is a signal isolation breakout board designed for use with DVT machine vision systems and industrial sensor networks. This compact DIN rail-mounted module provides electrical isolation between sensor outputs and controller inputs, protecting sensitive control systems from signal interference and transient damage. The breakout board features a standard 15-pin D-Sub connector for sensor input and internal termination paths for robust signal routing in automation environments.
