Information About CX1020-0021
The CX1020-0021 is part of Beckhoff’s CX Embedded PC systems and is built around a 1 GHz Intel® Celeron® M ULV single-core processor in a fanless, passively cooled design. It includes 256 MB DDR RAM, expandable to 1 GB, and boots from a CompactFlash® card, with 128 MB supplied and larger options available. The unit integrates two RJ45 Ethernet ports operating at 10/100 Mbit/s via an internal switch, enabling direct daisy-chain networking. It supports Windows Embedded CE 6, Standard 2009, or XP Embedded and comes with TwinCAT PLC, NC PTP, and NC I runtime software, making it a flexible choice for automation and motion control.
Key Features:
- Intel® Celeron® M ULV 1 GHz processor: Delivers efficient performance with low heat generation.
- 256 MB DDR RAM (expandable to 1 GB): Allows for scalable memory configurations.
- CompactFlash® slot (128 MB included): Provides reliable non-volatile storage.
- Dual Ethernet RJ45 ports: Integrated switch supports direct line topology networking.
- Passive cooling system: Quiet, reliable operation with optional active cooling upgrade.
- Operating system support: Compatible with Windows Embedded CE 6, Standard 2009, and XP Embedded.
- TwinCAT runtimes included: Supports PLC, NC PTP, and NC I control environments.
- Low power consumption: Typical consumption of 8–11 W ensures energy efficiency.
The CX1020-0021 delivers the compact performance, flexibility, and stability required for industrial automation tasks.
