SST DN4 DeviceNet Network Interface Cards (112005-112113)

Ideal for real-time control and data-acquisition applications, Molex’s fourth-generation SST™ DN4 high-performance DeviceNet* network interface cards(NICs) use an enhanced FPGA design to extend NIC reliability and performance

The DN4 family of DeviceNet* network interface cards (NICs) was developed to provide industrial OEMs and end-users with a more reliable and cost-effective solution for industrial communication. Ideal for use in real-time control and data-acquisition applications, Molex’s NICs are the result of 15 years of DeviceNet product expertise.

They use an enhanced FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) design with a lower component count, resulting in an extended product lifecycle and higher reliability. DN4 cards are available in a variety of product formats. Standard PCI (3.3/5 V) and PC/104 bus’ are supported. Both single- and dual-channel cards are offered for system flexibility.

Features & Benefits:

• Scans DeviceNet* in 3 to 5 milliseconds for a high-performance card with real-time control
• QuickConnect capability in Client (Master)mode ensures devices may be accessed faster on power-up (in less than 500 milliseconds)
• DN4 cards support multiple PC card bus’(PCI, PC/104) and channels (1, 2 channel)allows for application flexibility
• Multi-Slave (Server) versions of the PCI bus card are available (1 channel only);supports control system simulation to reduce design and field commissioning time
