EtherNet/IP connection-based communication

• Connection-based communication for the highest level of integration with Rockwell Automation controllers and software

Program using RSLogix 5000 version 17 or later and AOP

• Simplified integration with a familiar programming environment
• Easy to configure, no special configuration software required
• Integrated web page for wireless configuration

802.11g client

• Standards-based wireless protects investment and allows communication with RadioLinx Industrial Hotspots or 3rd party 802.11g access points
• High-speed, low latency wireless communication

Supports ProSoft Technology Integrated Wireless Architecture when used with RadioLinx Industrial Hotspots

• Optimizes wireless bandwidth through intelligent routing of multicast packets
• Limits loss of I/O messages

Uses Rockwell Automation POINT I/O modules

• Field-proven, cost effective I/O platform
• POINT I/O diagnostic features include channel-level diagnostics, removal and insertion under power
• Many Input/Output types to choose from digital I/O, analog I/O, POINT Guard I/O, RTD, thermocouple, serial-interface for ASCII, and counters
• Easy to add / customize point count - up to 63 POINT I/O modules per adapter
