EK1521 | 1-port EtherCAT multimode fibre optic junction

In conjunction with an EK1100 EtherCAT Coupler, the 1-port EtherCAT multimode fibre optic junction enables conversion from 100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX physics (glass fibre). In this way, distances of up to 2 km can be bridged in conjunction with the EK1501 EtherCAT Coupler for multimode fibre optics. Even cable redundant systems with fibre optic can be realised using the 1-port EtherCAT multimode fibre optic junction. The run LED shows the status of the EK1521.
