Connect ControlLogix to databases like Microsoft SQL or Oracle and to Cloud applications with MQTT protocol
tManager® Enterprise Appliance Transaction Modules (eATM®) enable bi-directional data exchange between enterprise databases like Microsoft SQL and CompactLogix PLCs.
Connect CompactLogix to databases like Microsoft SQL or Oracle
tManager® Enterprise Appliance Transaction Modules (eATM®) enable bi-directional data exchange between enterprise systems like Microsoft SQL databases and ControlLogix PLCs. tManager is the preferred PLC in-chassis hardware connectivity solution as compared to PC software-based connectivity solutions such as VB scripting and FactoryTalk Transaction Manager.
Phoenix Digital OCR Ethernet Networking Module
Connect Ethernet PLCs together through Phoenix Digital networking communications modules
The Phoenix Digital OCR is a DIN rail mount module that connects your Ethernet PLCs together and connects PLCs to Ethernet field devices. This industrial networking module is a built-for-purpose OT solution for control engineers. For example, the networking module comes with no configuration software so you can support your PLC and device networking without complicated setup and configuration. The OCR has a redundant fiber backbone for maximum network reliability and uptime. The OCR module supports Ethernet protocols such as PROFINET, Ethernet/IP, and Modbus TCP/IP all at the same time. Boot up time is about 10 seconds, and if a fiber fails, there is 0 convergence time to failover to the redundant fiber. Gone is the complicated setup required for redundant networking using IT based switches.
Phoenix Digital in-chassis Ethernet Networking Modules
Connect Ethernet PLCs together through Phoenix Digital networking communications modules
These Phoenix Digital in-chassis modules connect your ControlLogix, CompactLogix, SLC-500, and PLC-5 PLCs together and connect PLCs to Ethernet field devices. These industrial networking modules are built-for-purpose OT solutions for control engineers. For example, the networking modules come with no configuration software so you can support your PLC and device networking without complicated setup and configuration. The redundant fiber backbone between modules provides maximum network reliability and uptime. The in-chassis modules support Ethernet protocols such as PROFINET, Ethernet/IP, and Modbus TCP/IP all at the same time. Boot up time is about 10 seconds, and if a fiber fails, there is 0 convergence time to failover to the redundant fiber. Gone is the complicated setup required for redundant networking using IT based switches.
