The 0AC Interface Converters series is a group of standalone industrial network interface components designed to support communication in standard Ethernet and POWERLINK installations.
In the provided configuration, the platform functions as an 8-port Layer 2 hub with shielded RJ45 connections, support for both 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s networks, automatic speed recognition, and Auto-MDIX on every port. The series is powered from an 18 to 30 VDC supply and includes status indication for channel activity, link or collision status, and supply voltage condition. Mechanical installation supports either horizontal or vertical DIN-rail mounting, with additional provisions for direct mounting, while the housing is specified to IP20 and intended for control-cabinet use. The 0AC Interface Converters series is suited for industrial communication architectures that require compact multi-port Ethernet distribution, straightforward installation, and compatibility with standard twisted-pair segment lengths up to 100 meters between stations.
