The module processes data refreshed by the Main Processors once per scan, providing interface capability across safety and external network domains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe module features two BNC connectors for network connectivity. Port NET 1 supports Peer-to-Peer and Time Synchronization protocols for safety networks consisting exclusively of Tricon controllers. Port NET 2 supports open networking to external host systems running applications such as TriStation 1131, SOE, OPC Server, DDE Server, or user-written software, including those utilizing the TSAA protocol. The \u003cstrong\u003eTriconex NCM 4329\u003c\/strong\u003e operates at 10 megabits per second over thin coaxial cable (RG58). Two \u003cstrong\u003e4329\u003c\/strong\u003e modules can reside in one logical slot of a Tricon chassis to operate independently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipped with two BNC network connectors for RG58 50-ohm thin coaxial cable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNET 1 port dedicated to Peer-to-Peer and Time Synchronization protocols between Tricon systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNET 2 port dedicated to external host applications, including TriStation 1131, SOE, OPC Server, and TSAA protocol.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes two 15-pin D-connectors for external transceivers and one RS-232 serial port.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports 500 VDC port isolation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperates at an Ethernet communication speed of 10 megabits per second.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront panel diagnostic LED indicators for module and port status monitoring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInter-system Peer-to-Peer communication across dedicated Tricon safety networks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTime synchronization across multiple Tricon controllers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eData exchange with external host computers using TSAA (TCP(UDP)\/IP\/802.3) protocol.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterfacing Tricon systems with TriStation 1131 programming software, SOE, OPC Server, and DDE Server.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOrdering Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDescription\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel No.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNetwork Communication Module (NCM),\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEthernet (802.3) ports\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4329, 4329G\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 99.9009%;
