Kvaser USBcan Pro 4xHS

SKU #: KV-01261-5

The Kvaser USBcan Pro 4xHS is an advanced, portable multi-channel CAN/CAN FD to USB real time interface that handles transmission and reception of standard and extended CAN messages on the CAN bus with a high time stamp precision. Features include t programming and MagiSync™, which makes it possible to synchronize time stamps across multiple Kvaser MagiSync™-enabled devices without requiring extra wires.


  • Multi-channel USB CAN interface with Kvaser t programmability.
  • 20 000 msg/s per channel, each timestamped with a resolution of 1 μs.
  • Kvaser MagiSync™ – automatic time synchronization.
  • Supports CAN FD, up to 8 Mbit/s (with correct physical layer implementation).
  • Supports both 11-bit (CAN 2.0A) and 29-bit (CAN 2.0B active) identifiers.
  • Supports silent mode for analysis tools – listen to the bus without interfering.
  • High-speed CAN connection (compliant with ISO 11898-2), up to 1 Mbit/s.
  • Industrial grade temperature range, −40 oC to +85 oC.
  • Galvanic isolation.
  • Fully compatible with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000® and DeviceNet.
  • Simultaneous operation of multiple devices.
  • Power is taken from the USB bus.
  • Includes a 4-channel breakout cable.
