Terminology

A computer networking protocol used to automatically assign an IP address to network devices from a configuration server.

Power that is generated from module power by the adapter and expansion power, and supplied to the I/O system through the backplane.

An industrial communication protocol that is used by Logix 5000® based automation systems on EtherNet/IP™, ControlNet®, and DeviceNet® communication networks.

CIP Sync provides the increased control coordination needed for control applications where absolute time synchronization is vital to achieve real-time synchronization between distributed intelligent devices and systems.

A network protocol used to automate the process of assigning IP addresses and other network configuration parameters to devices on a network.

A network technology that takes advantage of embedded-switch functionality in automation devices.

A device that provides data and power connections from the backplane to the installed module.

Power that is supplied to the adapter and expansion power.

A short-range wireless technology that enables communication between two electronic devices over a distance of 4 cm (1.6 in.) or less.

A nonprofit association of vendors that are established for the promotion of CIP networks.

An EtherNet /IP specification used to create network redundancy by allowing PRP enabled devices to send duplicate Ethernet frames over two independent Local Area Networks (LANs).

A feature that enables the device to be connected and disconnected from the system without having to remove power from the system.
