The unit is designed for DIN rail mounting into industrial cabinets allowing simple Ethernet connections to be established between PLCs, I/O units, drives, inverters and HMIs. The dual power input makes the unit ideal in these types of application and the fault relay can be connected to an I/O unit to provide simple network management.

 

Designed to work in industrial environments with its IP 31 Aluminium housing and a wide temperature specification the SDI-862 is an ideal automation solution.

 

The SDI-862 is so easy to use, simply connect power to the screw terminals and plug in your RJ-45 cables. If you plan to use the fault contacts a DIP switch allows configuration whilst LEDs provide simple diagnostics if required. A broadcast storm filter even helps out if a loop is created by mistake
