Product Description:
Beckhoff manufactures the CU1123-0010. With a 100 megabit per second transmission rate, the Beckhoff CU1123-0010 EtherCAT junction is designed for high-speed data communication. This has a big impact on the system's real-time capability as it determines the maximum speed at which digital information flows through the automation network. This is necessary for the smooth transfer of many data types in complex industrial environments like high-frequency sensor outputs, fast actuator commands and long diagnostic exchanges. The junction removes communication bottlenecks that would otherwise hinder the precise synchronization of modern automation systems by keeping this high rate. Even under dynamic operating conditions, the system can maintain deterministic behavior because of the exact coordination between distributed control units made possible by the fast data transfer.
Each of the three integrated RJ45 ports on the CU1123-0010 is a separate physical interface for EtherCAT communication. With these ports, the junction can be used as a nodal extension or a network branching point. The device can be configured in many ways to fit different applications like creating hybrid topologies, tree-like hierarchies, star-shaped patterns and linear cascades. By limiting cable lengths, reducing signal degradation, and increasing signal routing efficiency, the multiple ports simplify the physical design of automation systems. This kind of flexibility is essential for building large, complex industrial networks where modular connection and strategic cable management have a direct impact on system performance and maintainability.
The CU1123-0010 has a very low latency of around 1 microsecond per port. This ensures that data packets pass through the junction with minimal temporal displacement and maintains the timing relationships within the system. In high-speed automation applications like synchronous motion control and multi-axis robots, where even small delays can result in big mechanical errors, very low latency is a must. Thermal stability under normal industrial conditions is ensured by the device operating steadily over a temperature range of 0 to 55°C. To comply with normal industrial power regulations for safety and grounding, it needs a steady 24 VDC supply via a 3-pin connector. Additionally, the CU1123-0010 offers spatial flexibility by supporting station distances of up to 300 meters, so you can design your system architecture over large areas without the need for additional networking modules or signal repeaters.
