Communications

The M60 provides advanced commun

ications technologies for remote data and

engineering access, making it the easiest

and most flexible motor protection relay

to use and integrate into new and existing

infrastructures. Direct support for fiber

optic Ethernet provides high-bandwidth

communications allowing for low-latency

controls and high-speed file transfers of

relay fault and event record information.

The available three independent Ethernet

ports, redundant Ethernet option and the

embedded managed Ethernet switch

provide the means of creating fault tolerant

communication architectures in an easy,

cost-effective manner without the need for

intermediary communication hardware.

The M60 supports the most popular industry

standard protocols enabling easy, direct

integration into DCS and SCADA systems.
