- Compact network transition between PROFINET and PROFIBUS
- Connection to Industrial Ethernet via integrated 2-port real-time switch with 100 Mbps full duplex connection with autosensing for automatic switchover
- For replacement parts: Connection to PROFINET also with 10 Mbps half duplex
- Connection to PROFIBUS with 9.6 Kbps to 12 Mbps
- PROFINET IO proxy;
Connection of PROFIBUS DP slaves to PROFINET IO controller in accordance with PROFINET standard:
From the viewpoint of the IO controller, all DP slaves are handled like I/O devices with PROFINET interface, i.e. the IE/PB Link is their proxy - Cross-network PG/OP communication by means of S7 routing
- Cross-network access to data of S7 stations for visualization with S7 OPC Server and S7 routing; via the IE/PB LINK, access is possible from Industrial Ethernet (for example for HMI applications with OPC Client interface) to data of S7 stations on PROFIBUS using the S7 OPC Server.
- High plant availability thanks to support of the Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP)
- Device replacement without programming device by using the C‑PLUG removable medium for backing up the configuration data
- Use in networks that support an exchange of devices without PG on the basis of the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)
- SIMATIC ET 200SP design: Use of BusAdapters (BA) of the SIMATIC ET 200SP system for user selection of the connection hardware and technology on the PROFINET side
