Overall Dimensions: 101.6mm (L) × 165.1mm (W) × 50.8mm (H), compliant with RX7i module mechanical specificationsHousing Material: Flame-retardant engineering plastic (UL94 V-0 grade), anti-static coating on surface, with RFI shielding functionWeight: Approximately 0.5kgMounting Method: Installed in the dedicated communication slot of the RX7i rack (requiring 1-slot spacing from the CPU module), supporting hot swappingWiring Method: Ethernet ports connected via CAT6 cables, supporting dual-cable deployment for redundant links
Environmental Parameters
Operating Temperature: -25℃ to +70℃ (non-condensing environment, compliant with IEC 60068-2-1/2 standard)Storage Temperature: -40℃ to +85℃Relative Humidity: 5% to 95% (non-condensing, compliant with IEC 60068-2-3 standard)Protection Rating: IP20 (module itself, relying on RX7i rack protection)EMC Compliance: Meets EN 55022 Class A (emission limits) and EN 55024 (immunity) standardsVibration Resistance: 10-500Hz frequency range, 0.5g acceleration (sine wave), 30 minutes of continuous testing per axis
Product Performance
High redundancy reliability: Supports MRP/PRP dual redundancy mechanisms with fault switching time ≤50ms, enabling seamless switching to the backup channel in case of link interruption or port failure; communication interruption time ＜1 message cycle, ensuring no loss of critical control data.
Outstanding real-time performance: Profinet IRT mode provides real-time message cycle ≤1ms with jitter error ＜100μs, meeting the strict real-time requirements of high-speed production lines and precision motion control.
Wide protocol compatibility: Supports both Profinet IRT and EtherNet/IP, enabling direct connection to third-party devices from Siemens, Rockwell, etc., without protocol conversion modules, simplifying multi-vendor system integration.
Comprehensive diagnostic capabilities: Real-time monitoring of link on/off, message loss rate, and protocol frame errors; fault location accuracy down to the port level; redundant switching logs can be viewed intuitively via HMI, improving maintenance efficiency by 60%.
Strong environmental adaptability: -25℃ to +70℃ wide temperature design covers alpine and high-temperature industrial scenarios; 2kVrms electrical isolation and strong electromagnetic interference suppression ensure stable operation near inverter-dense and high-voltage equipment.
