EtherNet/IP module with integrated 2-port switch added to the Anybus-S Slave family

The new EtherNet/IP module with integrated 2-port switch is the latest addition to the Anybus-S family. The new 2-port version allows EtherNet/IP real-time communication with line or ring topologies and eliminates the need for expensive external switches. The module provides instant integration in any Ethernet based LAN via SMTP, FTP, Telnet, HTTP as well as EtherNet/IP and/or Modbus/TCP. Additional protocols can be implemented on top of TCP/IP or UDP using the transparent socket interface.

The Anybus-S family of embedded communication modules allows automation devices to connect to 18 industrial networks including Profibus, Profinet, DeviceNet, CC-Link, Ethernet/IP and EtherCAT. Using the Anybus-S modules, device manufacturers can save up to 70% in development costs and reduce their time-to-market.
