Expand decentralization
Consolidate and gather I/O signals
Minimize critical installations
With IO-Link, you only need a node/IP address to transmit the data of up to 496 inputs/outputs. With data compression you preserve the valuable addresses and minimize critical installations.
The IO-Link actuator/sensor hub with its expansion port sets the standard. Combined with an IO-Link master, you have completely new options for expanding the decentralized structure of your network topology. You can use this port to simply connect valve interfaces or an additional IO-Link hub using plug-and-play. Additional inputs and outputs are processed this easily as well – with no additional master needed.
Configure up to 496 I/O's
A 16x IO-Link master allows up to 496 I/Os to be configured – up to 496 binary inputs and 640 binary outputs. The range is doubled and exponential cost savings are realized.
All you need to implement this network structure is a standard unshielded cable. You maintain access to the entire IO-Link functionality while reducing your wiring effort and saving money.
