Schneider BMECRA31210 Drop Adapter With Ethernet Backplane
The BMECRA31210 Schneider is a 3-port Ethernet Remote I/O (RIO) drop adapter designed for seamless integration within the Modicon X80 platform, supporting both Modicon M580 and M340 Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs). This adapter facilitates efficient communication between remote I/O modules and the main controller via an Ethernet backplane, enhancing scalability and flexibility in industrial automation systems.
Equipped with three RJ45 Ethernet ports supporting 10/100 Mbit/s transmission rates, the BMECRA31210 ensures robust data exchange and supports Ring topology through the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP). It operates with a current consumption of 1800 mA at 3.3 V DC and offers features such as 10 ms time-stamped data recording, port mirroring, and diagnostics for remote I/O devices. Compliant with international standards including EN/IEC 61131-2, EN/IEC 61010-2-201, and EN/IEC 61000-6-4, this adapter is ideal for medium to large process applications requiring reliable and high-speed remote I/O communication.
