Beckhoff: EK1101-0010 EtherCAT Coupler With ID Switch, Extended Distance
The EK1101-0010 coupler connects EtherCAT with the EtherCAT Terminals (ELxxxx). A station consists of an EK1101-0010 coupler, any number of EtherCAT Terminals and a bus end cap. The coupler converts the passing telegrams from Ethernet 100BASE-TX to E-bus signal representation. Using the extended distance connection, distances of up to 300 m can be bridged between two Extended Distance Couplers.
