Network module

The open industrial network CC-Link IE enables system construction using the MELSEC iQ-R Series modules. An Ethernet-based network allows the use of widely available cables and connectors. It supports star, line, and ring topologies to build flexible systems. In the redundant system, a highly reliable network with reduced single point failure using redundant CC-Link IE Field Network and redundant remote head module can be configured.

Managed CC-Link IE switch NZ2MHG-T8F2

  • Connectable to CC-Link IE and Ethernet devices simultaneously
  • ERP- and LA- style redundant topologies between switches continue communication at network failure including cable disconnection, by switching network paths
  • With an SFP transceiver*1, long-distance optical fiber cable, which is ideal for systems requiring facility-to-facility landline communication, is available
  • Supports VLAN and can manage multiple networks by one switch

SFP for long-distance communication

With its long-distance data transmission feature, optical fiber cables are ideal for facility-to-facility long-distance communications

  • *1.Either the optical port (OPT1/OPT2) or RJ45 port (P1/P2) can be used at a time.
