Product Short Description
The IC695SPF002 is a high‑speed, industrial Small Form‑Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver/scanner module designed exclusively for the PACSystems RX3i programmable automation controller platform, originally developed by GE Fanuc and now manufactured by Emerson. It serves as a fiber‑optic communication interface that connects remote RX3i I/O racks to a PROFINET IO controller, enabling high‑speed, noise‑immune data exchange over multi‑mode fiber cables. This module integrates scanning functionality to monitor and exchange input/output data between the controller and distributed field devices, supporting daisy‑chain, star, and ring network topologies.
