Product Overview
The GE IC693NIU004 is an Ethernet Network Interface Unit (ENIU) for the Series 90-30 PLC platform. It allows a remote I/O rack to operate as an Ethernet-based distributed station, communicating with a master controller over industrial networks. Installed in the CPU slot (Slot 1), it replaces the CPU in remote racks and enables high-speed data exchange between field I/O and central control systems. We supply this unit as 100% brand new, original condition to ensure reliable distributed control and stable network integration.

Engineering Advantages
Distributed I/O Scalability
Enables remote I/O racks to be installed closer to field devices, reducing long-distance wiring and improving system scalability.
High-Speed Data Synchronization
Supports Ethernet Global Data (EGD) for fast, deterministic data exchange between master PLC and remote stations.
Simplified System Configuration
Uses standard Series 90-30 configuration tools, allowing engineers to manage both local and remote I/O within a unified programming environment.
Robust Network Diagnostics
Built-in LEDs and Ethernet status indicators provide real-time feedback on link status, communication health, and module operation.
FAQs
Can I place a CPU in the same rack as an IC693NIU004?
No. The NIU occupies the CPU slot and acts as the control interface for that remote rack.
What software is required for configuration?
Proficy Machine Edition is used to configure IP settings and I/O scanning parameters.
Does it support fiber optic communication?
No native fiber port is included. External media converters or Ethernet switches are required for fiber integration.
Is it compatible with RX3i systems?
Yes, RX3i can function as the master controller, but the NIU itself is installed in a Series 90-30 remote rack.
