Overview

The Beckhoff EK1101 EtherCAT Coupler links 100BASE‑TX EtherCAT networks to EtherCAT Terminals (ELxxxx). It converts Ethernet telegrams to E‑bus signals, auto-detects attached terminals, and includes three hexadecimal ID switches for assigning a unique group ID, enabling flexible, variable topologies. System and field supplies (24 V DC) are provided at the coupler; the E‑bus can supply up to 5 V / 2 A to terminals.

Key Features

  • EtherCAT coupler with identity verification via three hex ID switches (up to 4096 configurable IDs)
  • 2 × RJ45 ports for 100BASE‑TX; up to 100 m between stations
  • Supports up to 65,534 EtherCAT Terminals in the overall system
  • E‑bus current supply up to 2000 mA; power contacts up to 24 V DC / 10 A
  • Electrical isolation 500 V between power contacts, supply voltage, and Ethernet
  • Compact IP20 housing; DIN‑rail (EN 60715) mounting; status LEDs
  • Approvals: CE, CCC, UL, ATEX, IECEx, DNV, cFMus

Applications

  • Coupling ELxxxx EtherCAT Terminals to EtherCAT networks with flexible placement using ID switches
  • Line or star topologies using EtherCAT junctions/extensions
  • Industrial control panels requiring compact, DIN-rail mounted couplers
