The General Electric IC695SPF002A is a Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) scanner module designed for integration within the PACSystems RX3i control platform. This module facilitates high-speed communication and network connectivity, supporting multi-mode fiber (MMF) infrastructure for extended range applications.
Features
Supports 100 Mbps communication speeds for reliable data transfer.
Compatible with multi-mode fiber (MMF) cabling up to 2 kilometers.
Equipped with two RJ-45 ports and two SFP cages for flexible connectivity options.
Integrated SD card support for data logging and configuration storage.
Onboard LED indicators for real-time status and diagnostic monitoring.
Operates on a power supply range of 3.3 to 5 Volts.
Applications
This scanner module is primarily used in industrial automation environments where the PACSystems RX3i system requires robust, long-distance communication over fiber-optic media. It is suitable for distributed I/O networks, remote monitoring stations, and high-EMI industrial zones where fiber optics provide superior signal integrity compared to copper cabling.
