Product Introduction
FCM10Ef P0916CP Fieldbus Communications Module is a fibre optic communications interface which allows the DIN rail-mounted Fieldbus Modules (FBMs) to communicate with the I/A Series control station over extended distances using fibre optic cabling. The FCM10Ef modules provide expanded networking, easy customization, and greater overall cabling distances in a fibre optic network. This configuration is ideally suited for sites in which groups of FBMs are to be spread apart over greater distances.

Product Details
FCM10Ef(P0916CP) modules are used with multiport fibreoptic converters (hubs), which connect to the I/A Series control station via the high-speed, optionally redundant 10 Mbps Ethernet trunk Fieldbus. Up to six groupings of baseplate-mounted FCM10Ef modules and FBMs can be linked to each optionally redundant multiport fibre optic converter (hub), for a maximum of 120 FBMs per I/A Series control station (depending on selected scan periods). To support redundancy, a pair of FCM10Ef modules must be used for each FBM grouping. In non-redundant configurations, only a single FCM10Ef is required for each grouping.

FCM10Ef MODULE DESIGN
FCM10Ef modules convert 2 Mbps signals used by the FBM to 10 Mbps fibre optic Ethernet signals used with fibre optic cabling, and vice versa.
FCM10Ef modules have a compact design, with a rugged extruded aluminum exterior for physical protection of the circuits. Enclosures specially designed for mounting of the FBMs and FCMs provide various levels of environmental protection for the FCM10Ef modules, up to harsh environments per ISA Standard S71.04.
The FCM10Ef can be removed/replaced from the baseplate without removing power. Six light-emitting diodes (LEDs) incorporated into the front of the FCM10Ef indicate the status of network activity to/from the associated FBMs, and the FCM10Ef module's operational status.
