Remote I/O Module

Remote I/O modules put a controller's inputs and outputs out at the machine instead of back in the panel, so field devices wire to a local block and only a network cable returns to the CPU. Big plants order them when hundreds of cores back to a cabinet is no longer sensible, when a marshaling panel has run out of room, or when a new cell needs its own I/O drop on the existing network.

 

As an authorized electrical distributor for multiple manufacturers, we stock remote I/O modules from ABB, Carlo Gavazzi and more across competing lines, in a range of bit rates, amperage ratings and cable sizes, so you can match the network and signal type the controller expects, compare bit rates and ratings across brands, and cut the cable count back to the panel.
