EK1501 EtherCAT Coupler with ID switch, multi-mode fiber optic
The EK1501 EtherCAT Coupler with multi-mode fiber-optic connection is the link between the EtherCAT protocol at fieldbus level and the EtherCAT Terminals. The coupler converts the passing telegrams from Ethernet 100BASE-FX to E-bus signal representation. A station consists of a coupler and any number of EtherCAT Terminals that are automatically detected and individually displayed in the process image.
Special features:
Connection technology 2 x multi-mode fiber-optic connection via SC duplex.
Connection lengths up to 2 km.
3 ID switches for implementing variable topologies.
Number of EtherCAT Terminals in the overall system: up to 65,535.
Task within EtherCAT system: coupling of EtherCAT Terminals (ELxxxx) to 100BASE-FX EtherCAT networks, with identity verification
