Fig.17: EK1521
In conjunction with an EK1100 EtherCAT coupler, the 1-port EtherCAT multimode fiber optic junction
enables conversion from 100Base-TX to 100Base-FX physics (glass fiber). In this way distances of up to 2
km can be bridged in conjunction with the EK1501 EtherCAT Coupler for multimode optical fibers. Even
cable redundant systems with optical fiber can be realized using the 1-port EtherCAT multimode fiber optic
junction. The run LED shows the status of the EK1521.
