About the IS420PPNGH1A
The IS420PPNGH1A is a PROFINET Gateway module device designed to fit into a Mark VIe system. The IS420PPNGH1A was manufactured by GE Energy.
The IS420PPNGH1A is a powerful gateway that connects Mark VIe controllers to a PROFINET LAN (local area network). This allows high-speed communication to occur between the controller and PROFINET I/O devices.
The IS420PPNGH1A is a single-module component that is designed to be air-cooled. It has no installed battery or fan. The unit should be installed where fans are not blocked and airflow is not impeded. This model will need to be panel mounted vertically.
It is important to note that IONet and PROFINET cannot be supported simultaneously by the same switch. Each network must be connected to an independent switch. PPNG boards typically use ESWA 8-port unmanaged switches or ESWB 16-port unmanaged switches. Cabling can be anywhere from three to eighteen feet.
The IS420PPNGH1A is built upon a 1066 MHz Intel processor (EP80579.) It runs upon a QNX Neutrino operating system and has 256 DDR2 SDRAM. The IS420PPNGH1A must use ControlST V05.04 or higher. The weight of this unit is 2.4 pounds. The maximum PROFINET data rate that can be used with this model is 6 KB per ms.
