The USBcan Pro 4xCAN Silent, a compact, multichannel four-channel CAN/CAN FD to USB real-time interface that is always silent on the CAN bus (‘listen only’). This CAN interface is made silent through hardware and thus, cannot transmit on bus.

Standard CAN interfaces receive and transmit CAN messages, enabling them to be used to configure the system to which they are connected. However, certain customers, particularly those developing highly sensitive autonomous or safety-critical systems, require CAN interfaces capable of listening only, so that the interface has no impact on the bus or surrounding systems. Listen-only interfaces are also used to prevent any application or third-party, such as a hacker, from impacting the CANbus and its related systems through the Kvaser device.

  • USB CAN interface with Kvaser t programmability. 
  • Always silent – listens to the bus without interfering it.
  • Supports CAN FD, up to 8 Mbit/s.
  • Quick and easy plug-and-play installation. 
  • Supports both 11-bit (CAN 2.0A) and 29-bit (CAN 2.0B active) identifiers. 
  • Power is taken from the USB port.
  • 100% compatible with applications written for other Kvaser CAN hardware with Kvaser CANlib. 
  • High-speed CAN connection (compliant with ISO 11898-2), up to 1 Mbit/s. 
  • Fully compatible with J1939, CANopen, NMEA 2000® and DeviceNet. 
  • Kvaser MagiSync – automatic time synchronization (see Section 4.7, Kvaser MagiSync, on Page 19 for more details). 
  • Supports simultaneous usage of multiple Kvaser interfaces.
