It connects directly to the end of an EtherCAT Terminal segment or Embedded PC (CX series), extending communication lines up to 100 meters using a standard Ethernet cable with an M8 connector. The device performs continuous conversion from E-bus signals to 100BASE-TX Ethernet format, maintaining signal integrity and synchronization across extended networks. With power supplied via the E-bus and no configuration required, the EK1110-0008 simplifies network design and supports consistent cabling for both IP20 and IP67 system environments. Key Features: EtherCAT Line Extension: Allows easy expansion of EtherCAT networks using line topology, linking additional terminals or remote devices. M8 Socket Interface: Equipped with a shielded M8 connector for reliable Ethernet cabling in industrial environments. Signal Conversion: Continuously converts E-bus signals to 100BASE-TX Ethernet representation for smooth data transmission. Long-Distance Communication: Supports connection lengths up to 100 meters, maintaining high network integrity and low latency. Maintenance-Free Operation: Requires no configuration or parameterization, reducing setup time and simplifying commissioning. High-Speed Data Rate: Operates at 100 Mbit/s for fast, deterministic EtherCAT communication. Electrical Isolation: 500 V isolation between supply voltage and Ethernet ensures system protection and reliability. Robust and Compact Design: IP20-rated, lightweight housing suitable for DIN-rail installation in control cabinets. The EK1110-0008 delivers the reliability and precision required for efficient EtherCAT network expansion and industrial communication continuity.
