Managed ethernet switch ARS series

Ethernet APLfor DIN rail

The Ethernet-APL rail field switch from FieldConnex is the first switch in process automation to combine common communication technology with Ethernet-APL. The rail field switch simultaneously transmits power and data on an Ethernet wire into hazardous areas of the process plant. Ethernet-APL rail field switch for DIN rail mounting makes migration from fieldbus to Ethernet not only easy for users, but also cost-effective. In addition to Ethernet-APL, the switch is the only product worldwide which can optionally handle the Manchester bus-powered physical layer (MBP), and it can be flexibly configured to connect to an existing PROFIBUS PA instrument base.
