Molex has introduced its SST PB3-CPX Modules to connect Rockwell Automation CompactLogix L2, L3 and L4 controllers to PROFIBUS DP-V0 and DP-V1 Networks. The modules enable high-performance, low-cost solutions for industrial automation applications and are compatible with Master DP-V0 Class-1; Master DP-V1 Class-1 and Class-2; and Slave DP-V0 protocols. SST PB3-CPX Master/Slave Modules can be configured as PROFIBUS Master, Slave or Master/Slave, delivering a flexible design that reduces inventory and spares. According to Molex, the modules are easy to spec in and offer up to 1,984 input bytes and 1,968 output bytes per master, making them suitable for large PROFIBUS networks.
