The APAX-5071 Profinet Coupler enables the popular Profinet networking interface to be used with APAX series I/O modules in remote and distributed applications. It features an integrated 2-port Ethernet Switch, allowing for a daisy-chain style of Ethernet networking between multiple distributed couplers.  In addition, the  flexible nature of the APAX Series I/O allows for high-speed communication backplane to be extended over Ethernet.  This allows for I/O nodes to be connected in a line (bus) topology, instead of a traditional star topology, therefore reducing the effort required for wiring and saving installation costs. Most importantly, a single APAX-5071 coupler can be used to interface APAX I/O for multiple distributed locations into the Profinet network, thus requiring only one IP address on the network.
