BK9105 | Beckhoff | IP Bus Coupler

Description

The BK9105 Bus Coupler facilitates the connection of EtherNet/IP with modular, extendable electronic terminal blocks. Each unit comprises one Bus Coupler, accommodating any number from 1 to 64 terminals (255 with K-bus extension), and one end terminal.

Automatically recognizing connected terminals, the Bus Coupler assigns inputs and outputs to process image words. It supports 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s Ethernet via standard RJ45 connectors. IP address configuration is done through the DIP switch, offset to a user-defined start address. In DHCP networks, the Bus Coupler obtains its IP address from the DHCP server.

Information About BK9105

The BK9105 Bus Coupler integrates EtherNet/IP with modular, extendable electronic terminal blocks. A single unit comprises one Bus Coupler, accommodating from 1 to 64 terminals (255 with K-bus extension), along with one end terminal.

This Bus Coupler automatically recognizes the connected terminals and assigns inputs and outputs to the process image words. It supports Ethernet speeds of 10 Mbit/s and 100 Mbit/s, utilizing standard RJ45 connectors. IP address configuration is facilitated via the DIP switch, with an offset to a freely selectable start address. In DHCP-enabled networks, the Bus Coupler obtains its IP address from the DHCP server.

Featuring a 3-port switch, the BK9105 facilitates flexible connectivity. Two ports operate externally via RJ45 connectors, enabling configuration of I/O stations with a line topology, minimizing wiring and cabling costs. The maximum distance between two couplers is 100 m. Cascading up to 20 BK9105 Bus Couplers extends the line length to a maximum of 2 km.

Ethernet/IP, endorsed by ODVA (Open DeviceNet Vendor Association), serves as the Industrial Ethernet standard. It is grounded on Ethernet TCP/IP and UDP/IP, where IP denotes Industrial Protocol. Essentially, Ethernet/IP extends the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP), initially employed in ControlNet and DeviceNet, to Ethernet TCP/IP and UDP/IP environments.
