What is the B&R X20BC008T?

Communication technology: OPC UA Field eXchange (FX)

I/O configuration via OPC UA FX

400 µs minimum cycle time

Integrated switch for daisy-chaining

2x 1 Gbit/s full-duplex mode

OPC UA diagnostics and module diagnostics at runtime via OPC UA clients

This bus controller provides OPC UA FX functions. This allows any OPC UA clients access to read or write data from I/O modules connected to the bus controller.
