PROFINET interface
Plug connector M12 D-coded (7/8″ plug and M12 plug, D-coded) according to IEC 61076-2-101
PROFINET switch
Linear topology network structure due to integrated switch (supports MRP).
MLI connections (module plug connector)
An MGB2 Modular or an MCM Modular can be connected directly to a bus module (direct plug). Alternatively, the modules can be connected using commercially available connecting cables M12, 5-core (cable connect).
