Version: 2.7
3.2.2
Ethernet RJ45
The C6030 has four Gigabit LAN ports (X102-X104). The Ethernet standards 100Base-T and 1000Base-T
enable connection of corresponding network components with data rates of 100/1000 Mbit/s. The required
speed is selected automatically.
The RJ45 connection technology with twisted-pair cables is used. The maximum length of the cable
connection is 100 m.
The Ethernet ports LAN2-LAN4 are suitable for cycle times <= 1 ms and for distributed clock applications
with EtherCAT.
The Ethernet port LAN1 is suitable for real-time Ethernet applications with cycle times > 1 ms (without
distributed clocks).
The controllers are used as follows, based on the device generation:

The LEDs of the LAN interfaces indicate the activity and the speed of the data transfer (Mbit/s). The LED on
the left indicates whether the interface is connected to a network. If this is the case, the LED lights up green.
The LED flashes when data transfer is in progress.
The LED on the right indicates the speed of the data transfer. If the speed is 100 Mbit/s the LED is orange, at
1000 Mbit/s it is green.
