The AS-i (Actuator-Sensor-Interface) bus is frequently used at the lowest
sensor and actuator level. Binary I/O signals can be transmitted very
cost-effectively this way. The bus system is user-friendly, easy to configure
and flexible in terms of installation. The data and the auxiliary power for the
connected AS-i devices are transmitted via the two-core AS-i cable.
The INTERBUS Loop was developed as a pure sensor/actuator bus and

down the hierarchy than INTERBUS (remote bus) and can be easily
connected to it via a bus terminal.
