NETLink® PRO Compact, PROFIBUS Ethernet gateway
– The NETLink® PRO Compact combines flexibility with a compact design. Power is supplied to the NETLink® through the CPU of the automation device or externally with DC 24 V as an option.
The network connection can be used with any standard Cat-5 cable, making cable lengths up to 100 meters feasible without additional components.
Features:
• RFC 1006 (ISO on TCP)
• CPU-to-CPU communication (with S7-300* and S7-400*)
• Power can be supplied by the CPU or, alternatively, by an external DC 24 V supply
• Support for all common S7 engineering tools
• Dynamic address assignment using DHCP
• Security functions for securing TCP/IP access
• PLC write protection feature can be enabled and disabled
• Up to 16 TCP connections
• Up to 32 MPI/PROFIBUS connections
• Easy configuration via web interface
• Variables can be monitored on a browser window
• Support for configuring slave parameters
• Electrical isolation for MPI/PPI/PROFIBUS
• MPI/PPI/PROFIBUS from 9.6 kbps to 12 Mbps
• For S7-200*, S7-300*, S7-400*
