Siemens Simatic PN/PN Coupler for deterministic data exchange

The PN/PN coupler is used whenever easy-to-configure, fast (deterministic) data exchange between PROFINET controllers is required. Data transmission can be performed both beyond network boundaries as well as within a single network side. The PN/PN coupler features an enclosure with the dimensions 100 x 117 x 75 mm (WxHxD). It is snapped onto a DIN rail (7.5 mm or 15 mm). The PN/PN coupler provides the output data of the writing CPU as input data to the receiving CPUs within a PN cycle. Both fail-safe data (via F_SendDP/F_ReceiveDP of a SIMATIC F-CPU only) and standard data can be transmitted..
