EtherCAT G: Ultimate I/O Performance
Beckhoff presents EtherCAT G for use in high-performance machines and highly complex applications. As a continuation of the EtherCAT success principle, speeds of 1 Gbit/s or 10 Gbit/s are now available. Both performance steps can be regarded as system-compliant supplements to the EtherCAT technology.

CU1411
The EtherCAT G branch controllers enable transparent conversion of transmission rates of EtherCAT G and EtherCAT. The CU1411 has two marked ports for integration into an EtherCAT G network. An EtherCAT and/or EtherCAT G segment can be coupled via a further branch port.

CU1418
The EtherCAT G branch controllers enable transparent conversion of transmission rates of EtherCAT G and EtherCAT. The CU1418 has two marked ports for integration into an EtherCAT G network. Eight EtherCAT and/or EtherCAT G segments can be coupled via a further branch port.

EK1400
The EK1400 EtherCAT G Coupler connects EtherCAT G with the EtherCAT Terminals (ELxxxx). One station consists of an EK1400 Coupler, any number of EtherCAT Terminals and an EL9011 bus end cap or an EK1110 EtherCAT extension. The coupler provides the same functionality as a branch controller.

CU1423
The 3-way EtherCAT G junction enables topology expansions without changes in transmission rates. Line, tree or star – EtherCAT G supports almost any topology. The 3-port CU1423 EtherCAT G junction provides a compact solutions to cascade an EtherCAT network.

FB1400
The EtherCAT G piggyback controller board offers a complete EtherCAT G connection based on a reloadable FPGA. The FB1400 is suitable for EtherCAT G connections. It is compatible with the EL9820 EtherCAT evaluation kit.

FB1450
The EtherCAT G piggyback controller board offers a complete EtherCAT G connection based on a reloadable FPGA. The FB1450 is suitable for EtherCAT G10 connections. It is compatible with the EL9820 EtherCAT evaluation kit.
