In modern smart factories where multiple brands of PLC coexist, MC0EN, with its excellent protocol adaptability,
Break down brand barriers and provide efficient and stable data exchange capabilities for automation systems.
FATEK MC0EN It is a remote I/O module that supports Modbus TCP and EtherNet/IP dual protocols. As a communication conversion hub in industrial networks, it allows a single I/O system to connect across brands to mainstream PLCs and HMI/SCADA architectures such as Allen-Bradley, Mitsubishi, Siemens, OMRON, Schneider, Keyence, etc. Each protocol supports 16 simultaneous connections.
The core value of MC0EN lies in the built-in EtherNet/IP Adapter and Modbus TCP/IP two industrial communication protocols, allowing the same set of hardware to adapt to different brands of control architectures without replacement. The prerequisite for its application is that the upper-layer PLC or SCADA supports the corresponding protocol. The limit is that the maximum number of connections for each protocol is 16, and the same connection is not supported across protocols at the same time.
Supports periodic communication and message communication, and can be directly connected to high-end control systems such as Allen-Bradley (Rockwell) to achieve data synchronization.
Standard open protocol provides ultimate third-party integration compatibility, and can integrate Mitsubishi, Siemens, Delta and other brands and interface with HMI/SCADA monitoring software.
The following matrix integrates the selection indicators of the two MC0EN protocols to help developers make quick decisions based on existing architecture and scenario requirements. Please note that the maximum number of connections is calculated separately for each protocol, and sharing the same connection across protocols is not supported.
| Technology Type/Standard | core competencies | Applicable scenarios (Best For) | Limitations | Connection performance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EtherNet/IP Adapter | Periodic communication and message communication, supporting Allen-Bradley (Rockwell) high-end control system data synchronization | Rockwell/Allen-Bradley architecture, production lines requiring high-level control system integration | Modbus device direct connection is not supported; the maximum number of connections is 16 | 16 simultaneous connections |
| Modbus TCP/IP | Standard open protocol, integrating Mitsubishi, Siemens, Delta and other brands and connecting to HMI/SCADA | Expansion of existing Modbus architecture and third-party HMI/SCADA monitoring integration | EtherNet/IP periodic communication is not supported; maximum number of connections is 16 | 16 simultaneous connections |
MC0EN supports 16 simultaneous connections under both EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP protocols, ensuring smooth communication in scenarios of simultaneous monitoring of multiple devices and data requests from multiple master stations. The prerequisite for its application is that the network bandwidth and the switch have corresponding throughput capabilities. The boundary limitation is that the upper limit of the number of connections for a single protocol is fixed at 16 and cannot be expanded through settings.
FATEK is committed to building a comprehensive communications ecosystem. Our R&D team is actively developing EtherCAT、Modbus RTU and more industrial agreements to ensure your assets always have forward-looking connectivity advantages.
FATEK MC0EN is not only a set of I/O expansion devices, but also a powerfulCommunication conversion hub。
Let your automation equipment have "Next Level" communication capabilities that are flexible and seamlessly interoperable.
