PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The IP-EC-8IA combines EtherCAT communication and IO-Link master functionality into one compact and rugged module. Supporting the IO-Link V1.1.4 standard, each of the 8 Class A ports can independently configure Pin 2 and Pin 4 as digital input or output channels, allowing users to flexibly adapt the module to different application requirements.
Designed for harsh industrial environments, the module features an IP67 protection rating, built-in temperature monitoring, communication diagnostics, and online firmware upgrades without disassembly. Its dual M12 D-Code Ethernet interfaces support high-speed EtherCAT communication and easy network integration in distributed automation architectures.
