B&R X20IF1082-2 PROFINET Redundancy Module – Dual-Port PLC Gateway for High-Availability Systems | T??V-Certified

Description

The B&R X20IF1082-2 is a TUV-certified PROFINET redundancy module that serves as a dual-port PLC gateway for high-availability industrial automation systems. It features 1 POWERLINK V1/V2 interface, with support for switching between management mode and controlled mode, and integrates 2x hub functionality to enhance network connectivity. Key redundant capabilities include ring network redundancy and PRC (PROFINET Redundancy Control) functions, which ensure uninterrupted operation in the event of a network fault, critical for maintaining production continuity in reliability-focused environments. The module also supports PROFINET IO RT (real-time) and IRT (isochronous real-time) communication, enabling high-speed, synchronized data transfer for time-sensitive control tasks. Its dual-port design and redundant architecture make it ideal for deployment in critical control links of industrial production systems, where system downtime would result in significant operational losses. Compliant with industry safety and performance standards, the X20IF1082-2 is engineered to meet the strict requirements of high-availability setups, providing a robust, reliable gateway solution for integrating PLCs and other automation components into redundant PROFINET networks.
