Datalogic CM9681-N200 EtherNet/IP IP65 Connection Module

Connect Ethernet-capable industrial identification equipment to an EtherNet/IP network through an IP65-rated connection module. Datalogic CM9681-N200 combines Ethernet connectivity with EtherNet/IP protocol support for installations that need a protected network interface at the equipment location. Its connection-module format places the network connection function in a dedicated component rather than presenting it as a general-purpose controller or reader. EtherNet/IP support makes the module relevant where industrial Ethernet communications must align with control-network environments using that protocol. The Ethernet interface provides the physical network connection, while the EtherNet/IP capability identifies the intended industrial communications environment. This combination is suited to identification points integrated into automated machinery, material-handling equipment, and other networked production assets. The IP65 enclosure rating is a defining characteristic for deployments where a protected housing is required around the connection point. IP65 indicates complete protection against dust ingress and protection against water jets, supporting installation outside a higher-rated control enclosure when the surrounding application requires it. Select this module when both Ethernet and EtherNet/IP connectivity are required in an IP65-rated connection-module form factor.
