HMS Industrial Networks now adds the M.2 format to the IXXAT® INpact PC-card range. The result is the smallest PC-interface for Industrial Ethernet and Profibus on the market.
Modular multi-protocol concept with full Ethernet flexibility
INpact M.2 is available as finalized product with pre-installed network protocol, but it also features a flexible, multi-protocol Common Ethernet version which enables users to save storage cost. Economy of scale is achieved since users can simply select and upload the desired Industrial Ethernet protocol to the INpact by themselves depending on end customer networking needs.
The connection of INpact M.2 to the fieldbus or Industrial Ethernet network is done through a special bus interface board, connected via cable to the IXXAT INpact M.2. The INpact M.2, bus interface board, cable and mini bracket comes in a ready-made kit, but can also be purchased separately, if desired.
