The following communication networks can be established via the PROFINET interface:
● PROFINET CBA:
Communication between controllers as components in distributed systems
● PROFINET IO
Communication between the PLC controller and field devices
– No access from NCK to PROFINET I/O
– No support from isochronous mode (PROFINET IRT)
Properties
The PROFINET interface X150 is equipped with an integrated 2-port switch and a TCP/IP
address for the 2 ports.
Pin assignment

Pin Signal name Signal type Meaning
1 TXP B Transmit data +
2 TXN B Transmit data -
3 RXP B Receive data +
4 - - Reserved, do not use
5 - - Reserved, do not use
6 RXN B Receive data -
7 - - Reserved, do not use
8 - - Reserved, do not use

Note
The PROFINET interface has what is known as autocrossing functionality, i.e. when
required, transmit and receive lines are switched over. Thus, no crossover cables are
necessary.
