CI871A 3BSE092693R1 ABB PROFINET IO Communication Interface Module

Product Summary
ABB CI871A PROFINET IO module offers 100 Mbps Ethernet, hot-swap, redundancy, and supports 256 devices. CE, UL, marine certified. Ideal for AC 800M/800xA integration with built-in web server.
Product Description
Product Overview

The ABB CI871A communication interface module is designed for industrial automation systems that require Ethernet-based PROFINET IO connectivity. It allows the AC 800M controller to act as a PROFINET IO controller, integrating third-party PROFINET devices into the ABB System 800xA environment.

The module uses a TP867 baseplate with dual RJ-45 Ethernet connectors, where the CH1 connector supporting 100 Mbps is used for the PROFINET IO connection. The Ethernet cable must be connected to the PROFINET IO network through an Ethernet switch.

The CI871A expansion unit contains CEX-Bus logic, a communication unit, and a DC/DC converter that supplies the required voltage from the +24 V supply through the CEX-Bus, requiring no additional external power source.
