NL 51N-DPL: PROFINET / PROFIBUS proxy connector

The netLINK PROXY integrates any PROFIBUS DP slave into a higher-level PROFINET network. Designed as a connector, the device is plugged directly into the PROFIBUS DP interface of the DP slave and connected to the PROFINET network via the RJ45 female connector.

On the PROFINET side, netLINK behaves like a standard I/O device. In accordance with the guidelines of PROFIBUS and PROFINET International (PI), the process data of the DP slave is mapped as a module in the PROFINET slot/subslot.

Commissioning is carried out via the Ethernet port with a direct connection to the PC or, if already installed, via a PROFINET switch during operation. The netLINK PROXY is configured with the FDT/DTM-based SYCON.net planning, configuration and diagnostic tool.

Only a few steps are needed to get netLINK ready for operation. If the slave's GSD file is not directly available, a scan function allows it to be identified automatically on PROFIBUS. As soon as the configuration and the I/O process data length of the slave are identified, SYCON.net automatically converts the parameters into a standardized GSDML file. Importing this file into configuration tools of any type of PROFINET controller and commissioning netLINK is straightforward.

The netLINK Proxy has a 24 V power supply. During installation, the voltage can be conveniently tapped from the DP slave and connected to the 2-pin COMBICON connector. The short transmission distance on PROFIBUS makes a bus termination resistor unnecessary.

The netLINK PROXY is the cost-effective and practical alternative to a new development for easily integrating an existing PROFIBUS DP slave device into the PROFINET world.
