Introduction

In conjunction with an EK110x EtherCAT coupler, the 1-port EtherCAT single-mode fiber optic junction enables conversion from 100Base-TX to 100Base-FX physics (glass fiber). In conjunction with the EK1501-0010 EtherCAT coupler for single-mode optical glass fiber, distances of up to 20 km can be bridged. Even cable redundant systems with optical fiber can be realized using the 1-port EtherCAT single-mode fiber optic junction. The run LED shows the status of the EK1521-0010.
