Features and benefits

 • Supports Ethernet/IP and Device Net protocols

 • Support 6 redundant pairs of CI873A from 5.1 FP4

The CI873A is an AC 800M communication interface that connects to

 external Ethernet devices using the EtherNet/IP protocol. The TP867

 Baseplate has two RJ45 Ethernet connectors, but only the CH1

 connector that supports 100Mbps is used. The CI873 expansion unit

 contains the CEX-Bus logic, a communication unit, and a DC/DC

 converter that supplies the required voltage from +24 V supply

 through the CEX-Bus.

 The CI873A module wi l only work with System 800xA 6.0.3.3, 6.1.1

 and subsequent versions. The CI873A support 6 redundant pairs of

 CI873A from 5.1 FP4.
