Ethernet is the future standard for communication at the factory floor

Offers advanced features such as:

Modbus TCP is the first industrial Ethernet-based protocol for automation

Connects to Modbus-TCP-based networks. It is able to handle connection interval down to 5 ms in both directions, positioning it among the fastest performing Modbus TCP devices in the market. For master redundancy it features hot swapping between two masters

Other features:

Represents the second generation of fieldbus. The high bit rate of industrial Ethernet can now be used to make the full power of IT technologies used in the automation world available for the factory world

It provides high performance real-time and time synchronization features. Due to its CANopen-based communication models, network management and device description model, it offers much more than just a fast communication network

The perfect solution for:

Offers connectivity to EtherCAT-based networks using the EtherCAT Protocol
