Information About 170INT12000
The 170INT12000 is an INTERBUS Generation SUPI 3 communication adaptor within Schneider Electric’s industrial automation accessory range. It is engineered for fiber optic communication, enabling long-distance, noise-immune data transmission in ring network topologies. The adaptor interfaces directly with an I/O base for power supply and system integration, eliminating the need for external power wiring. Designed for use in legacy INTERBUS systems, it supports fail-safe operation and provides local diagnostics through integrated LED indicators.
Key Features:
- INTERBUS SUPI 3 Protocol Support: Enables deterministic communication within INTERBUS Generation SUPI 3 networks.
- Fiber Optic Transmission: Provides high immunity to electromagnetic interference and extended segment distances.
- Ring Topology Compatibility: Supports closed-loop INTERBUS network architectures for reliable data flow.
- 500 kbit/s Data Rate: Ensures stable and consistent communication performance across connected devices.
- Integrated Fail-Safe State: Maintains controlled behavior in the event of communication failure.
- Dual SUB-D Connectors: Equipped with two 9-pin SUB-D connectors for network connectivity.
- Local Status Indication: Includes four LEDs for power, bus activity, receive, and transmit diagnostics.
The 170INT12000 delivers the reliability and precision required for fiber-based industrial fieldbus communication systems.
