Anybus Communicator - Common

Ethernet slave - Common Ethernet slave

The Anybus Communicator Common Ethernet - Common Ethernet is an industrial protocol

gateway that allows you to seamlessly transfer data between PLC control systems over

EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, and PROFINET networks. The Anybus Communicator Common Ethernet

– Common Ethernet is pre-loaded for PROFINET IO-device - EtherNet/IP adapter networks but by

updating the firmware the device supports combinations of Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT, Modbus TCP,

and PROFINET networks.

Anybus Communicators are designed to ensure reliable, secure, and high-speed data transfer

between different industrial Ethernet and Fieldbus networks. Very easy to install and deploy, the

stand-alone gateways enable transparent data exchange between PLCs allowing you to both

bridge and integrate legacy equipment into modern high-performance networks with only minimal

changes to the software.

Anybus Communicators are built using the award-winning and proven Anybus NP40 industrial

network processor providing network conformance, high performance, and reliability. When

connecting between PLCs on different networks, extremely fast data cycling is enabled with data

transfer of up to 1500 bytes in each direction, meeting most current control application needs as

well as supporting future demands.

Quick installation is ensured thanks to the intuitive configuration, easy-to-understand

documentation, and smart hardware and housing design.

Instant data transfer - The time it takes to transfer data between two PLCs consists of the cycle time on the first network plus the cycle

time on the second network. Internal data transfer in the Communicators is negligible as it’s in line with the natural variation of the

network cycle times (jitter).



Hardware-accelerated endian conversion (byte swap) - The Communicators can change the data representation (endianness) through a

hardware-accelerated endian conversion to ensure data is presented correctly in each PLC. You can even convert different parts of the

data area in different ways to handle different data types. It has no impact on performance, offloads the PLC of the data conversion

task, and simplifies PLC programming.



Dedicated ethernet configuration port - no special cables required.



Intuitive web-based drag and drop configuration interface - no need to install any additional software.



Forward-facing ports make it easy to connect cables and the slim form factor saves space on the DIN rail.
