Product Description:
The FBM2XX (P0916DD) is a robust Field Device System Integrator (FDSI) module, designed for high-integrity serial communication between the Foxboro I/A Series or Foxboro Evo system and external Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). This module supports a wide range of serial protocols, enabling seamless integration of Allen-Bradley, Modicon, and Siemens PLCs into the DCS environment.
With 4 independently configurable ports, the FBM2XX (P0916DD) supports RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 standards, making it a versatile solution for legacy system integration projects. Its ruggedized aluminum housing provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensures efficient heat dissipation in industrial settings. The module also offloads protocol management from the main Control Processor, maintaining deterministic and responsive control loops.
