Description

Product headline
Real-Time Ethernet Slave communication module with SPI and Dual-Port Memory (netX 51).

Short description
The COMX communication module is designed for integration into automation devices to provide drives, robot controllers, PLCs and other control devices with a network interface. Communication tasks run autonomously on the module, independent of the host processor. Process data is exchanged via a Dual-Port Memory accessed through an 8/16-bit parallel bus or via a fast 50 MHz SPI interface. COMX supports leading Real-Time Ethernet protocols as Master or Slave and features two Ethernet ports for line topology. Protocol stacks can be changed by loading appropriate firmware; master operation requires a software license. A 10-year delivery guarantee is provided thanks to the Hilscher netX network controller.
