2.7.3.1 SFP Modules for Ethernet Ports
Each Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) cage on the bottom of a PROFINET Controller module can accept a:
• 10/100/1000 Mbps copper SFP,
• 100Mbps Single-Mode Fiber SFP,
• 100Mbps Multi-Mode Fiber SFP,
• 1000Mbps Single-Mode Fiber SFP, or
• 1000Mbps Multi-Mode Fiber SFP device.
SFP devices can be removed/replaced during module operation. The RX3i PROFINET Controller
supports the SFP devices listed below. An SFP type other than those listed below can be configured
as a GENERIC SFP in Proficy Machine Edition. The RX3i PROFINET Controller will attempt to operate
with a generic SFP that identifies itself as an Ethernet SFP. Since SFP types other than those listed
below have not been validated, correct operation cannot be guaranteed.
