Product description
The SIG350 Sensor Integration Gateway is an IO-Link master that bundles and controls sensor communication via 8 IO-Link ports. The SIG350a allows for seamless integration and loss-free data transmission from the sensor to the cloud – and with reduced cabling work. The ports can be loaded with a maximum of 4 A in order to be able to integrate actuators with higher power requirements. The PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and EtherCAT industrial protocol are available for network communication. Thanks to IO-Link even during operation, an integrated web server allows for intuitive configuration of the IO-Link master as well as the connected sensors. Data exchange with cloud solutions is possible via the REST API, MQTT and OPC UA IIoT interfaces.
