The BECKHOFF EKM1101 is an EtherCAT Coupler designed to connect standard EtherCAT Terminals (ELxxxx series) to 100BASE-TX EtherCAT networks. This coupler features built-in identity verification through integrated rotary hex switches and comprehensive voltage diagnostics, housed in a durable zinc die-cast metal enclosure. It acts as the head station for downstream I/O terminals, converting the passing telegrams from Ethernet 100BASE-TX to the E-bus signal representation.
To support modular machine designs and flexible system topologies, the BECKHOFF EKM1101 allows explicit identity assignment. The user can manually configure station IDs directly on the device using three rotary switches, preventing communication mismatches in systems with changing configurations. Additionally, the coupler monitors both supply and output voltages, offering enhanced electrical diagnostic coverage and isolated output voltages for stable field-side operation.
