New PROFINET IO bus coupler for IP65/67 protection

The new PROFINET IO bus coupler from Phoenix Contact is ideal in immediate proximity of the process and thus offers true value added for your application. It links a local bus station to a PROFINET IO network; digital signals are measured directly over the eight inputs.

E/Os on board


By integrating eight digital inputs in the IP65/67 protection, the new PROFINET IO bus coupler now provides direct functionality for your application.

Advantage: You can save on the number of local bus devices and realize small-scale applications without additional I/O terminal blocks!

  • Startup with all modern conveniences: Plug & Play mode: The bus coupler automatically reads in the physical structure of the station and saves it in a non-volatile memory
  • Support for SNMPv2, TFTP, PROFINET IO and LLDP
  • A choice of transmission rate of 500 kBaud or 2 Mbaud allows for flexible adaptation to the application and also permits savings in warehousing costs
  • Clearly legible diagnostic and status displays
  • Convenient on-site diagnostics
  • Extensive diagnosis data available via the fieldbus
  • Well-designed and accessible pluggable connections with clear labeling: Use of D-coded connectors
  • Paves the way for a powerful Fieldline Modular local bus



Putting the advantages of the fieldbus to use

The bus coupler allows not only star wiring, but thanks to the integrated 3-port switch, also the configuration of line structures - familiar from other fieldbus systems such as INTERBUS or Profibus. This gives you the flexibility you need when choosing the network system and you can make use of all the advantages.

An integrated 3-port switch makes it possible to set up a line structure.
