The CP5512 is a PCMCIA card. Due to this I would not buy it from new. PCMCIA is a legacy standard that is disappearing fast from new laptops.
Consider the PC Adapter USB or the CP5711 USB in stead.
CP5512 and CP5711 can be used to troubleshoot Profibus networks to some degree, the PC adapter cannot.

The NetLink Pro is an Ethernet to MPI/DP adapter. You get all the advantages of ethernet. It cannot be used for diagnosing Profibus though.

Personally, I use ethernet enabled CPU's everywhere, so no need for any adapter at all. For the occasional need for programming an old CPU with only MPI or DP on board, I use a PC Adapter USB.

and cp 5512 do

wht is exactly means

what is advantage of netlink pro over siemense cp5512

Dear kraj

Netlink pro is used in the areas where there are Ethernet Connections but u don't have any means to communicate with them except MPI/DP

CP5512 diagnoses the Profibus Networks.
Network Diagnosis :
Transmission Rate
Available Bus Network( Address)
Type of Communication ( MPI / Profibus )

The CP5512 is an adapter from PCMCIA to MPI or DP. So it does not have any ethernet functionality.

The NetLink is an adapter from Ethernet to MPI or DP.
I think you should read the manual for the NetLink.
