SIMATIC ET 200 I/O Platform

Siemens SIMATIC ET 200 I/O system with MultiFieldbus allows users to maximize engineering efficiencies and cost-effectiveness. One fieldbus with multiple Ethernet protocols, their MultiFieldbus systems enable users to standardize on a single I/O platform while flexibly using PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus TCP in their automation projects.

With MultiFieldbus users can tailor their machines to the requirements without having to spend a lot of time and effort adapting the I/Os. The SIMATIC ET 200 MultiFieldbus interface modules can exchange data with multiple controllers from different vendors via different protocols simultaneously and over the same cable and/or subnet.

Users can overcome bus limitations with MultiFieldbus, and OEMs can save the time and effort of replacing I/Os when exporting machines to different regions or working with different customer control specifications. End users can simplify service requirements and reduce their spare parts inventory by standardizing on a single I/O platform regardless of the PLC. Thanks to the multiprotocol support of multiple Ethernet protocols, replacing the controller and using a different protocol is no longer a problem.

The comprehensive SIMATIC ET 200 I/O platform with MultiFieldbus simplifies engineering by offering scalable and flexible solutions to meet any requirement whether inside the control cabinet (IP20 degree of protection) or on-machine (IP 65/67/69K degree of protection). Featuring safety, redundancy, IO-Link, motor starters, drives, weighing modules, and much more, Siemens SIMATIC ET 200 I/O is truly a universal I/O solution.
