Introduction 1:
EJ1122

2-port EtherCAT junction

The 2-port EtherCAT junction enables configuration of EtherCAT star topologies. A modular EtherCAT star can be realized by using several EJ1122 units in a station. Individual devices or complete EtherCAT strands can be connected at the junction ports. The EtherCAT junctions are connected via RJ45 sockets with direct display of link and activity status.

The Run LED indicates the status of the EJ1122.

Via TwinCAT and other suitable EtherCAT masters the EJ1122 also supports coupling and uncoupling of EtherCAT strands during operation (Hot Connect).
