Product Description:
The unit CU2608 joins Beckhoff’s renowned CU EtherCAT Junctions series. It features segmented EtherCAT connectivity without external switches which simplifies network topology design. The module consumes power from a 100-240 VAC supply to accommodate a wide range of global mains voltages. It consumes just 14.5 W under peak load that keeps thermal output low and reduces cooling demands in compact control cabinets. The component offers two CAN interfaces which let you integrate distributed CAN-based devices seamlessly into the EtherCAT network for streamlined communication.
The drive’s electrical isolation prevents ground loops and enhances network reliability. It accepts an input voltage range from 100 to 240 VAC which adapts to fluctuating mains without external converters. The module mounts via a screw-in module design for securing it firmly and minimizes panel vibration risks. It incorporates 8 Ethernet ports as well. The module transfers data at 10/100 Mbits/s with auto-negotiation, optimizing a link speed and guarantees compatibility with various network devices. It runs reliably between -30°C and +70°C which maintains operation under extreme indoor or outdoor temperatures. The unit achieves IP65/IP66/IP67 protection ratings which seals the housing against dust and powerful water jets for wash-down applications.
CU2608 supports cable lengths up to 100 m of shielded twisted pair which extends network reach across large machine layouts. It performs automatic crossover detection and correction. allowing direct use of straight-through or crossover cables without manual changes. It features D-coded, 4-pin M12 Ethernet interfaces and secures robust connectivity and withstand industrial-grade vibration and shocks. This gadget operates in an unmanaged store-and-forward switching mode which buffers complete Ethernet frames to prevent packet loss and ensure data integrity. Moreover, it provides one hardware diagnostic LED per channel that delivers quick visual feedback and simplifies troubleshooting during maintenance.
Frequently Asked Questions about CU2608:
Q: How does CU2608 handle variable mains voltages in your facility?
A: The device accepts input voltages from 100 to 240 VAC which accommodates unstable power supplies. You can avoid downtime caused by undervoltage or overvoltage without needing additional converters.
Q: What keeps CAN communications reliable on the CU2608?
A: It provides two CAN interfaces which isolate bus traffic and prevent data collisions.
Q: How can you confirm CU2608’s network reach on a long production line?
A: CU2608 supports up to 100 m of shielded twisted-pair cable which extends device spacing.
Q: Will CU2608 survive high-pressure wash-downs on the factory floor?
A: The module’s IP65/66/67 rating seals it against dust and water jets as well as temporary immersion.
Q: How does CU2608 simplify Ethernet device connections?
A: It includes eight D-coded, 4-pin M12 Ethernet ports which secure cables under vibration. You may attach sensors and actuators directly without using external switches.
