IECC-210-KIT Industrial EtherCAT Media Converter Kit (IECC-210T + IECC-210R)

Description

PLANET IECC-210-KIT (IECC-210T +IECC-210R) is an industrial EtherCAT Media Converter equipped with the EtherCAT protocol for today’s distributed industrial applications. The EtherCAT-capable IECC-210T for Industrial Fast Ethernet serves as media converter from copper to optical fiber while the IECC-210R does the opposite. It can be diagnosed as two separate EtherCAT devices. With the advantage of fiber optic cabling, the data transmission distance of the IECC-210T and the IECC-210R can be extended to 60km (Depending on the ability of SFP module). Their compact size and DIN-rail mounting make installation in a cabinet easy. Pluggable terminal blocks and LED indicator help users to maintain and set up their system.

The IECC-210-KIT is an ideal media converter solution which provides quick installation, real-time connection status monitoring, wide-ranging power input and wide operating temperature to improve work efficiency, making them suitable for the harsh environment. Besides, both of them come with one 100BASE-TX RJ45 port and one 100BASE-FX SFP port. Through the EtherCAT technology, a network of up to 65,535 devices can be supported without the limitation of the type of topology — line, bus, tree, star or any arrangement – -being used.

An EtherCAT slave is an electronic device that carries out cyclical sequences of calculations and/or data copying tasks at a certain interval (cycle). The EtherCAT slave working cycle (e.g. in the range of a few µs up to several ms) can be derived from different sources. EtherCAT node can measure time difference between leaving and returning frame. With distributed clocks, EtherCAT can realize a precise synchronization time of <1us between each slave module.

With the IP30 metal industrial case, the IECC-210-KIT provides a high level of immunity against electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges which are usually found on plant floors or in curb-side traffic control cabinets without air conditioning. It features a ventilated construction in which a cooling fan is not necessary, thereby making its operation noiseless. Being able to operate under the temperature range from -40 to 75 degrees C, the IECC-210-KIT can be placed in almost any difficult environment.
