The Ethernet PCI network cards can be used in office and automation networks and offer the following benefits:
plug-and-play interface
100/1000 Mbit/s, full duplex
maximum performance through hardware-integrated checksum creation and verification
The hardware side supports Quality of Service (QoS) through prioritized multiple queues.
The cards (or individual channels) can also be operated with TwinCAT drivers – and therefore in real-time.
At PCs with one or two free PCIe module slots the FC9062 can be retrofitted on site.
