Vutlan VT408 — 8-Port Analog Sensor Extension Unit
Extension unit that adds +8 analog sensor ports to Vutlan master units over CAN bus. Sensors are auto-detected; up to 24 VT408 units can be chained on one CAN line, with bus length up to 225 m. Used when the master unit runs out of ports or sensors are clustered in a remote rack.

Typical applications
Data center — +8 sensors with each VT408 when the master unit's ports run out.
Remote rack group — collect sensors locally and carry them to the master over a single CAN cable.
Compact install — VT335G + VT408 together in one 1U with VT122t.
Adding analog sensors to VT-PDU and LR800, which have no analog ports.
