BECKHOFF Communication Module EL6001

BECKHOFF Communication Module EL6001

The serial interface terminal module EL6001 can be used to connect devices with RS232 interface, and this terminal module meets the CCITT V.28/DIN 66 259-1 standard. The device is connected to the EtherCAT terminal module EL6001, which communicates with the automation equipment, through a coupler. This active communication channel is independent of the previous layer's bus system and operates in full duplex mode, with a communication rate of up to 115.2 kbaud. The RS232 interface signal is electrically isolated and has good anti-interference performance.
