Product Description
The NFSB100-500/SBT01 is a specialized communication enhancement module for the Yokogawa CENTUM VP platform. It regenerates and amplifies SB bus signals that have weakened over long cable runs, maintaining synchronized data exchange between the Field Control Station (FCS) and remote I/O nodes.
This configuration includes the /SBT01 SB Bus T-Joint, enabling network branching and star-topology expansion without compromising signal integrity or throughput.

Network Architecture and Deployment
The NFSB100-500/SBT01 (Model: NFSB100, Suffix/Option: -500/SBT01) is used in large-scale plant installations where I/O nodes are distributed beyond the standard SB bus distance.
By incorporating the T-joint, engineers can implement multi-drop and star-topology cabling, reducing overall cable requirements while maintaining signal quality and deterministic control timing.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the NFSB100-500/SBT01 required instead of a standard cable?
A repeater is needed when bus cable lengths exceed SB bus limits or when branching a single bus line into multiple directions without signal degradation or reflections.
Does this module support hot-swapping?
Disconnecting the module will temporarily interrupt communication for all downstream nodes. While the hardware is robust, maintenance must follow Yokogawa procedures to prevent process disruption.
