Discover Phoenix Contact ILB BT ADIO MUX-OMNI, a plug-and-play wireless multiplexer for 16 digital & 2 analog signals with fast, reliable Bluetooth 4.0.
The Phoenix Contact ILB BT ADIO MUX-OMNI is a compact wireless multiplexer designed to handle 16 digital inputs/outputs and 2 analog channels in both directions. Built on Bluetooth 4.0 technology, it provides a quick and secure way to replace complex cabling with reliable wireless connections. Its setup requires no configuration—simply connect the modules and power them on to establish a communication path. Indoors, the system covers up to 100 meters, while outdoor use with appropriate antennas extends the range up to 400 meters. This makes it ideal for applications where flexible, cable-free I/O transmission is essential.
The ILB BT ADIO MUX-OMNI enhances industrial operations by reducing wiring costs, simplifying installation, and speeding up system deployment. Operators benefit from built-in LED indicators that display link quality and diagnostic information, helping to minimize downtime and maintenance. With protective measures against overload, reverse voltage, and surges, it ensures long-term durability in demanding environments. Its fast response time and failsafe mechanisms make it suitable for mobile machinery, rotating systems, and control panels that require dependable, maintenance-friendly wireless communication. By combining plug-and-play operation with robust protection, it delivers both convenience and reliability to modern industrial networks.
The ILB BT ADIO MUX-OMNI is more than just a wireless multiplexer—it’s a productivity tool that cuts installation time, removes the hassle of wiring, and delivers fast, reliable signal transmission in any industrial setting. By combining Bluetooth technology with plug-and-play simplicity, it gives engineers a flexible solution that adapts to moving machines, temporary setups, and long-distance I/O transfers. This makes it an essential choice for operations that value both efficiency and reliability.
Traditional wiring in industrial plants can be expensive, inflexible, and time-consuming to maintain. The ILB BT ADIO MUX-OMNI solves these challenges by replacing bulky cable runs with a secure wireless bridge capable of handling both digital and analog signals. It reduces downtime during installation or system upgrades, ensures robust communication even in harsh environments, and enables mobile or rotating systems to stay connected without complex slip-ring arrangements. This eliminates one of the biggest bottlenecks in industrial automation: rigid cabling.

Overhead cranes often require signal transfer between fixed panels and moving trolleys. Using cables or slip rings creates wear and frequent maintenance. With the ILB BT ADIO MUX-OMNI, control and sensor signals are sent wirelessly, eliminating mechanical stress points. Its ability to handle both digital and analog channels ensures smooth operation of lifting speed controls and position sensors. Built-in diagnostics allow operators to monitor signal quality, which reduces downtime and increases safety when handling heavy loads. This approach improves reliability while lowering long-term service costs.
Heavy tooling carts in foundry environments must move freely while staying connected to control systems. Running cables across busy floors is unsafe and impractical. The ILB BT ADIO MUX-OMNI provides a wireless bridge, allowing temperature sensors and digital actuators on mobile carts to communicate with central controllers. Its fast signal response keeps production smooth even in noisy electrical conditions. The compact design and easy DIN-rail installation make integration straightforward. As a result, operators gain greater flexibility in repositioning equipment while maintaining safe and efficient workflows.
Wastewater treatment plants often have pumps spread across wide areas where cabling is costly and vulnerable to environmental damage. The ILB BT ADIO MUX-OMNI allows wireless control of pumps, transmitting analog data such as flow levels along with digital start/stop commands. Its plug-and-play operation simplifies setup, while the built-in failsafe ensures pumps automatically revert to safe states if communication is lost. This reduces the risk of system failures, cuts infrastructure expenses, and supports more flexible layout options in water management facilities.
Modern agricultural machinery like harvesters or irrigation arms often rely on rotating systems that are difficult to wire. Traditional cable solutions risk breaking due to constant movement. By introducing the ILB BT ADIO MUX-OMNI, both analog sensor values and digital controls can be transmitted wirelessly across moving joints. Its protective circuits guard against voltage surges, while LED indicators allow quick checks in outdoor conditions. This approach not only reduces downtime from cable failures but also provides farmers with a more reliable and maintenance-friendly solution in the field.
