Product Description:
The X20ET8819 is an Ethernet analysis tool produced by B & R Automation for the X20 Fieldbus Input Output Modules series. It occupies a single slot in an X20 I/O node and mirrors telegrams passing through the module, allowing users to evaluate link utilization, error counters, and protocol handshakes while the machine runs. By inserting the module between the controller and remote devices, facilities can perform trend logging and troubleshooting without rewiring or taking equipment offline, which is important for continuous-process automation.
Network access uses the RJ45 connector format on two auto-negotiating copper ports. The two Ethernet ports enable daisy-chain installation, so the module sees every packet in transit while maintaining full line speed to the field device. For cabinet integration, the plastic housing snaps onto an EN 60715 (TH35-7.5) rail and aligns with neighboring power and signal modules. Circuits are protected up to Overvoltage Category II. The interior electronics sit behind an IP20 enclosure that blocks finger contact and most airborne debris but requires installation inside a closed control panel. The module has a shock tolerance of 15 g, helping prevent communication loss when the carrier frame is exposed to impacts during transport or machine indexing.
Field wiring lands on a push-in terminal block keyed for 24 VDC, providing tool-free conductor insertion and clear polarity guidance for the power supply. The connector has 12 pins arranged in two staggered rows, and it accepts ferrules up to 2 × 0.75 mm² for parallel sensor or tap leads. Continuous operation on moving gantries or vibratory feeders is supported by a vibration rating of 1 g. For extended diagnostics, internal traces support Active Hub Modules that regenerate the mirrored signal for additional measurement points without adding a significant load to the network. This arrangement permits signals to be observed at multiple points while preserving communication between the controller and connected field devices.
