Advantys STB / OTB distributed I/O solution — network-coupled I/O islands for remote machine control.

Advantys STB is a distributed I/O system built around the idea of an "island": a network interface module, a power supply and a row of I/O modules assembled on a common base, mounted close to the machine and connected to the controller over a fieldbus or industrial Ethernet. The OTB variants extend the concept with more compact, fixed-configuration islands for smaller nodes.

The STB- and OTB-prefixed references indexed here include network interface modules for the major industrial protocols, I/O modules, power distribution modules and the accessories that complete an island. Because the network interface defines which protocol the island speaks, it is usually the first reference to check when matching a spare.

Product pages document the module specifications recovered from the original documentation and note the island-position constraints (for example, which slots a module may occupy). The sourcing guidance reflects the reality that Advantys STB hardware is largely past its active sales period in many regions, so supply often comes from remaining distributor stock or the surplus market.
