Product description:

NETLink-PRO-USB offers a robust high-speed connection to the S7 PLC-family and to compatible products offered by other manufacturers (e.g. Pilz, etc). NETLink-PRO-USB is connected to the S7 controller's MPI interface and the seamless integration into the Siemens world makes this device act like a PG adapter, however with substantially higher flexibility.

As an attractively priced and flexible interface, NETLink-PRO-USB complements Softing's S7/S5 OPC Server.

 

NETLink-PRO-USB is powered by either the CPU in case it is directly connected to the CPU port or the USB port of your computer; however an external 24V supply can easily be provided for occasions when NetLink-PRO-USB is connected via the MPI/Profibus network and your USB port cannot power the NetLink-PRO-USB.

NETLink-PRO-USB represents a solution that does not compromise like many other adapters:

  • Fast and flexible interface between PC/PG and controllers with high throughput
  • Seamless integration in Siemens STEP7, WinCC and ProTool
  • PLC connection speed up to 12 Mbps via MPI or PROFIBUS
  • Automatic baud rate detection
  • Plug&Play via USB v2.0 with fast data throughput
  • Connect to up to 8 PLC's at once
  • Cost-effective connection alternative for programming with STEP7
  • Powered by PLC, USB Port, or externally
  • Din-rail mounting option
  • Interference free connection through active bus line
  • Robust hardware in a small casing
