All models in the ioLogik E1200 series are built with two embedded Ethernet switch ports that allow information to flow to another local Ethernet device or connect to the next ioLogik in the daisy-chain. Applications such as factory automation, security and surveillance systems, and tunnel monitoring, can make use of daisy-chained Ethernet for building multi-drop I/O networks over standard Ethernet cables. Many industrial automation users are familiar with the multi-drop configuration typically used in fieldbus applications. By daisy-chaining ioLogik E1200 units, you can increases the number of connections between machines and panels, eliminate the cost of buying separate Ethernet switches, and greatly reduce the cost of labor and cabling. For example, if a production facility contains 700 stations (20 points per station), you can reduce the total implementation cost by 15% due to reduced wiring requirements.
