Intended use
The 2.5 Gbit Ethernet module CX2500-0062 is an extension module for the CX20x2, CX20x3, CX52x0, CX53x0 and CX56x0 Embedded PC series. The CX2500-0062 extension module is used to integrate additional interfaces into the system and is connected to the left of the basic CPU module via a multi-pin connector.
For the CX20x2 and CX20x3 series, up to two CX2500-0062 extension modules can be connected in any order, whereas for the CX52x0, CX53x0, and CX56x0 series, only one extension module can be connected at a time and only the upper port of the module can be used, as the CX52x0, CX53x0, and CX56x0 only have one PCI Express® lane on the left-hand side.
Together with an embedded PC, the extension module is designed for installation in a control cabinet or terminal box and meets the IP20 protection rating. This means:
- It is protected against penetration by fingers and solid foreign bodies of 12.5 mm or larger in size.
- It is not protected against water.
Operation of the devices in wet and dusty environments is not permitted, unless otherwise specified. The specified limits for electrical and technical data must be adhered to.
The extension module is not suitable for operation in the following areas:
Improper use
- Hazardous area.
- Areas with an aggressive environment, e.g. aggressive gases or chemicals.
- Living areas. In living areas, the relevant standards and guidelines for interference emissions must be adhered to, and the devices must be installed in housings or control boxes with suitable attenuation of shielding.
