Diverse Connection Topologies of FATEK Remote I/O
FATEK MCOEN Remote I/O
Diversified connection and spectrum planning solutions
FATEK MCOEN couplers break space constraints with their superior I/O Bus extension technology,
Provides an extremely flexible and low-cost expansion architecture for modern and complex fields.
FATEK MCOEN It is a remote I/O coupler that supports Modbus TCP and EtherNet/IP dual protocols. It has built-in dual network ports and can be directly connected through daisy chain, star, tree and other topologies without the need for additional switches. A single system supports up to 64 modules and 2048 DIO points.
Three major expansion solutions: space optimization based on MCOEN
MCOEN provides three physical layout solutions: single-row expansion, branch expansion, and hybrid expansion, allowing developers to freely choose based on on-site space and cross-machine distance. The common premise of the three solutions is that the total number of modules must not exceed 64 units.
Single row expansion
match MRPWE-AC Breaking through the limit of 16 modules in a single coupler, the maximum number after series connection is 64 mods。
Branch expansion
Most supported 6-row vertical layout. Perfectly realizes cross-machine deployment.
hybrid expansion
Freely arrange quantity and level, as long as the total number ≤ 64 units, which can flexibly adapt to complex on-site space environments.
Expansion solution technology comparison matrix
The following matrix integrates the selection indicators of the three expansion solutions to help developers make quick decisions based on on-site space, cross-machine distance, and hierarchical requirements. All solutions share the same boundary limit: the maximum number of total modules is 64
| Plan type | core competencies | Applicable scenarios (Best For) | Limitations | Module limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single row expansion (Relay Mode) | Paired with MRPWE-AC, it breaks through the 16-module limit of a single coupler and can be extended in series. | High-density centralized control, single cabinet or single production line module expansion | The total number shall not exceed 64 units; | Up to 64 modules |
| Branch expansion (Multi-Row) | Supports up to 6 rows of vertical layout, deployed across machines with dedicated cables | Cross-machine, layered electrical control cabinets, complex fields that require vertical distribution | The maximum number of rows is 6; the total number shall not exceed 64 units; | Up to 64 modules |
| Hybrid Mix | Free arrangement of quantities and levels, combined with single row and branch configuration flexibility | The space is limited, the layout is irregular, and it is necessary to take into account both centralized and decentralized areas. | The maximum number of rows is 6; the total number shall not exceed 64 units; | Up to 64 modules |
