Advantech's ADAM-6100 Series

Advantech's ADAM-6100 series is a new line of industrial Ethernet remote Input/Output (I/O) modules, seven of which are designed with the Ethernet/IP protocol and seven based on Profinet. Four of the Ethernet/IP-based modules have just been released, the 6150EI, a 15-channel isolated digital I/O Ethernet/IP module, the 6151EI, a 16-channel isolated digital input Ethernet/IP module, the 6156EI, a 16-channel isolated digital output Ethernet/IP module, and the ADAM-6160EI, a six-channel relay output Ethernet/I

548 Advantech's ADAM-6100 series is a new line of industrial Ethernet remote Input/Output (I/O) modules, seven of which are designed with the Ethernet/IP protocol and seven based on Profinet. Four of the Ethernet/IP-based modules have just been released, the 6150EI, a 15-channel isolated digital I/O Ethernet/IP module, the 6151EI, a 16-channel isolated digital input Ethernet/IP module, the 6156EI, a 16-channel isolated digital output Ethernet/IP module, and the ADAM-6160EI, a six-channel relay output Ethernet/IP module.

Designed with 2,500 VDC isolation protections, these modules are resistant to field interference and allow daisy chain connections, making it possible to transfer data much faster. The ADAM-6100 series can also be mounted in different ways depending on different field situations, such as DIN-rail mounting, wall mounting, and piggybacked. More importantly, Advantech's ADAM.Net Utility comes bundled with each module, allowing users to configure, set and test the modules through the Ethernet.
