IPC Pro, connections

Integral interfaces:

• Ethernet
  The integrated PROFINET interfaces (10/100/1000 Mbit/s) can be used for IT communication and for data exchange with PLCs such as SIMATIC S7 (with "SOFTNET S7" software packages).
• PROFIBUS onboard (option)
  The floating PROFIBUS interface (12 Mbit/s) can be used for connecting distributed field devices or for coupling to SIMATIC S7 (with "SOFTNET for PROFIBUS" software packages). (Due to high compatibility, the PROFIBUS option is not available for 15" 477D PRO)
• PROFINET onboard (option)
  The PROFINET interface can be used for connecting distributed field devices or for controlling drives.
• Other interfaces
  4 USB (Universal Serial Bus) interfaces and one serial interface are available for connecting additional I/O devices.
