Push-pull IO-Link master modules
27 December 2014
Balluff has developed new push-pull variants of its PROFINET IO-Link master modules. These are available with the choice of a fibre-optic cable or copper cable connection.They all have the push-pull connection technology for fieldbus and power cables that is specified in the AIDA (Automation Initiative of German Automobile Manufacturers).
A special, third variant combines both worlds and provides both a fibre-optic (SCRJ) and a copper (RJ45) push-pull connection. The particular attraction is that this module can be used for converting from a copper to a fibre-optic cable right in the I/O module, without needing a additional, external converter module.
Like all Ethernet-based IO-Link master modules from Balluff, the push-pull modules also have an integrated display for information and additional diagnostics as well as an integrated switch for setting up a PROFINET line structure.
