Waytek, Inc., a leading distributor of electrical wiring supplies, connectors, and relays, for the mobile equipment industry is proud to announce the addition of Infinitybox, to its broad, in-stock offering of OEM manufacturing electrical components.

Staying ahead of the demand, Waytek added the premier manufacturer of CAN-BUS for power management and mobile equipment products, Infinitybox, to its product line. This progressive line of power distribution modules (PDMs) complements the Waytek line by offering exciting new technology thats easier to program, install and use.

The Infinitybox J1939 POWERCELL PDM is designed for the commercial vehicle. It provides 10 outputs per each POWERCELL, solid-state MOSFET outputs, internal fuses for harness protection, standard automotive connectors for simple harnessing, and up to six POWERCELLs on one Infinity J1939 network. A variety of connection kits are also available.

They provide a customizable, modular power distribution platform that can be added to existing CAN-based wiring harnesses or they can replace traditional wired relay panels.

The Infinitybox inMOTION Motor Controller includes 5 H-bridge relay pairs for polarity reversing, internal current sensors for monitoring output load, integrated fuses for harness protection, standard automotive connectors for simple harnessing, and output configuration set by CAN messages sent from the Infinity J1939 input device.

Infinitybox J1939 PDMs are targeted toward the commercial vehicle manufacturer market. They provide a customizable, modular power distribution platform that can be added to existing CAN-based wiring harnesses or they can replace traditional wired relay panels.

The Infinitybox product line offers easy integration into existing Infinitybox J1939 networks, labor savings compared to building customer relay panels, and flexible solutions allow vehicle customization on production line. The Infinitybox J1939 PDM offers integrated output LEDs for status and diagnostics, and are field configurable and addressable.

The off-the-shelf system is completely customizable. Customers add the Infinitybox hardware necessary for the complexity of their vehicle. The behavior of the PDMs can be controlled by configuring the software on your J1939 input device. This flexibility allows changes to be made before, during and after installation; providing unprecedented control over your vehicles electrical system.

A wide range of Infinitybox products are kept in stock at Waytek. The Company offers customers a simple migration path from traditional switches and relays to Infinitybox J1939 switches and power distribution modules.

Infinitybox PDMs provide a complete electrical management solution for low-volume prototypes or high-volume, serial production. Its multiplexed architecture streamlines and has the capability to integrate functions of external electronics modules including timers, delays, dimmers, alarms and other control systems. It also features a built-in Infinitybox J1939 gateway that allows integration to other systems in the vehicle.

Originally designed for harsh-duty and off-highway equipment, Infinitybox products have crossed over to a broad range of commercial, emergency vehicle and motorsports applications. These power systems have been designed and tested to thrive in the harshest off-highway applications.

Infinitybox products are designed to provide vehicle manufacturers with the right tools to quickly engineer custom solutions for their power distribution systems.
