Description

The EP1111-0000 is an EtherCAT Box from Beckhoff designed for decentralized signal acquisition and network identification within an EtherCAT topology. This module serves as a junction for the EtherCAT network, enabling the identification of specific EtherCAT groups. It features two shielded M8 sockets and supports standard 100BASE-TX communication, allowing for cable distances of up to 100 meters between stations. Built with an IP65/66/67 protection rating, the EP1111-0000 is suitable for harsh industrial environments where direct field mounting is required.

Features

  • EtherCAT protocol integration with identification functionality
  • 2 x M8 shielded sockets (screw type)
  • 100 Mbit/s data transfer rate
  • 100-meter range (100BASE-TX)
  • Ruggedized IP65/66/67 enclosure for field installation
  • No configuration required (plug-and-play operation)
