Product Information

Product Information

The NXC-ME260 (FG2010-60) is a Master-Ethernet Card for use within NetLinx systems. This card provides a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connection and an RJ-11 SPE (Server Port Expander) connector for use with an AXB-SPE (Server Port Expander). The NXC-ME260 is the only Master card you will need, as it incorporates the functionality of all previous NetLinx Master Cards (NXC-M, NXC-ME, and NXC-MPE).

Beyond replacing the previous set of NetLinx Master Cards, the NXC-ME260 represents a high-performance NetLinx Master Controller. With double the Flash memory (16 MB) and a more powerful processor (Coldfire® 5407), the ME260 is faster than previous NetLinx Masters.

The NXC-ME260 can be loaded in the Master card slot of an NXF NetLinx Cardframe, in an NXI Integrated Controller, or within an NXS-MHS Master/Hub Module.
