Module émetteur-récepteur enfichable petit format GE Fanuc IC695SPF002 RX3i

Description

The IC695SPF002 is an industrial Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver module developed for the PACSystems RX3i automation platform. This optical network component is designed to install directly into the dedicated SFP cages of carrier hardware, such as the RX3i PROFINET Scanner (IC695PNS001) and Advanced PROFINET Scanner (IC695PNS101) modules. It enables high-speed, noise-immune fiber-optic connections to bridge local universal RX3i I/O racks across significant distances to a centralized PROFINET I/O Controller.

Operating over the standard 100Base-FX protocol layer, the IC695SPF002 functions at a Fast Ethernet speed of 100 Mbps over multi-mode fiber (MMF) infrastructure. It can transmit data seamlessly up to a physical limit of 2 kilometers without signal degradation. Utilizing light pulses rather than copper electrical currents, this optical transceiver offers total isolation against ground loops, high-voltage surges, and severe electromagnetic or radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) typically encountered in heavy industrial operating zones. The IC695SPF002 is critical for establishing robust, long-distance network typologies, including line/daisy-chain, star, or Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) ring networks.

Features

• Formulated to integrate directly with PACSystems RX3i network modules.
• Uses the standard 100Base-FX Fast Ethernet communication layer.
• Runs on multi-mode fiber (MMF) architecture for optimized industrial plant configurations.
• Supports network infrastructure links over long distances up to 2 kilometers.

• Fully compatible with host-level diagnostics, indicating link state and error tracking.

Applications

• Distributing I/O stations across distinct production lines, separate plant buildings, or field locations.
• High-noise processing environments near variable frequency drives (VFDs), power transformers, and welding fields.
• Industrial Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) communication rings for fault-tolerant automation backbones.
• Water treatment, chemical processing, and power distribution infrastructures requiring optical isolation across long runs.

Installation Guidelines

• Optical Radiation Precautions: SFP transceiver units employ an invisible laser beam to form fiber-optic communication signals. Never look directly into an open, unshielded port if a fiber cable is disconnected. Keep empty slots sealed with proper dust caps.
• High-Temperature Removal Hazards: When the local surrounding air temperature near the host scanner or backplane exceeds 40 degC, the physical external bodies of active SFP transceivers can climb above 70 degC (158 degF). To avoid burning bare skin, use insulated protective gloves or a tool such as needle-nose pliers when extracting a hot transceiver module from its cage.
• Cable Strain and Bend Limits: Always route the multi-mode fiber cables safely without exceeding the manufacturer's specified minimum bend radius, ensuring optimal optical data transmittal and preventing internal physical fractures.
• Network Status Verification: Use the integrated diagnostic LEDs on the host module to track network health. The associated port indicator will illuminate solid green when a stable 100 Mbps connection is achieved or light up solid red if an incompatible or uncertified SFP variant is discovered inside the slot.
