B&R X20BM15 — X20 Bus Module
The B&R X20BM15 is a bus module (backplane module) from
B&R’s X20 system — one of B&R’s core modern I/O architectures.
Within an X20 station, bus modules form the internal bus that links the individual I/O
modules to the controller and supplies the backplane connection between them. The X20BM… series is the standard bus-module range for the X20 system, and X20BM15 is a specific member of that series. Manufactured by B&R
(Bernecker & Rainer), Austria.

- Bus module for the B&R X20 system
X20BM…standard bus-module series- Forms the internal bus between X20 I/O modules
- Modern B&R I/O platform (not legacy MULTI / MIDI)
- Manufactured by B&R, Austria
Key Features & Functions
Backplane / Bus Module
Provides the internal bus connection within an X20 station, linking adjacent I/O modules to one another and to the controller.
X20 System Integration
Designed to snap into the X20 module rail, working with the full range of X20 digital, analog, motion and communication modules.
Modular Station Build
Enables flexible, expandable I/O stations by carrying the bus from module to module across the rack.
Industrial Construction
Built for continuous operation inside industrial control cabinets and process environments.

Source note: X20BM15 is a genuine B&R X20 bus module in the X20BM… series, corroborated by B&R’s X20 system documentation. Note that X20BM… variants differ primarily by features such as left/right-facing
connection, integrated X2X Link supply and power-bus termination — so
verify the exact variant’s configuration (terminal type, X2X supply function) against the
official B&R datasheet before selecting it for a given slot position.
Typical Application Scenarios
- I/O Station Assembly: forming the backbone bus of an X20 I/O station on a machine or plant.
- Machine & Plant Automation: linking X20 I/O modules to the controller in modern automation systems.
- System Expansion: extending existing X20 stations with additional modules.
- Retrofit & Repair: replacing bus modules in established X20 installations.
- Spare Part Replacement: servicing X20 systems in the field.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the B&R X20BM15?
It is a bus (backplane) module for the B&R X20 system, part of the X20BM… bus-module series that links the modules of an X20 I/O station.
Is it related to the MULTI / MIDI modules in this list (ECNT43-0, MCGE31-0, etc.)?
No — it belongs to the X20 system, a different and newer B&R I/O
platform. The EC…, MC… and HCM… codes are
Multicontrol-era hardware; the X20… codes are from the modern X20 generation.
How do the X20BM… variants differ?
X20 bus modules are distinguished mainly by connection orientation (left/right) and features such as integrated X2X Link supply. Confirm the exact variant for your slot position in the B&R datasheet.
What is the X2X Link?
X2X Link is B&R’s internal bus used within X20 stations; certain bus modules supply this bus. Confirm whether X20BM15 provides X2X supply in the official documentation.
Where can I find the official datasheet?
Official technical documentation is available from B&R Industrial Automation and authorized distributors. Verify all specifications there before purchase.
