The Honeywell 10307/1/1 Vertical Bus Terminator is a specialized termination module designed to ensure reliable communication and signal integrity within Honeywell’s industrial control systems. As part of a robust field I/O or PLC system architecture, this terminator is used at the end of a vertical bus backplane to eliminate signal reflection, data corruption, or noise interference. It is typically deployed in redundant or high-availability systems to maintain data integrity, especially in environments where real-time control and deterministic communication are essential.

Manufactured with precision and tested to meet strict industrial-grade reliability standards, the 10307/1/1 model is part of Honeywell’s legacy and current distributed control system (DCS) offerings and integrates seamlessly with Honeywell’s TDC 3000 and Experion platforms.
