Nexto Series is a powerful and complete Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) with unique and innovative features. Due to its 
flexibility, smart design, enhanced diagnostics capabilities and modular architecture, Nexto PLC can be used for control 
systems in medium and high-end applications or in high speed machinery  

NX5000 redundancy link module, a  part of Nexto Series, is used in applications that require more Ethernet Interfaces than 
already available on Nexto CPUs or in applications where is necessary a high availability of automation system with uses of 
network redundancy.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Its main features are: 

 

Simultaneous support to MODBUS TCP and MODBUS RTU over TCP 

 

Simultaneous operation as MODBUS master/client and server/slave 

 

Redundant architecture support (half-cluster) 

 

Network redundancy support (NIC teaming) 

 

Hot swap support 

 

Auto crossover Ethernet Interface 

 

All configuration and parameterization through MasterTool IEC XE 

 

One Touch Diag 

 

Electronic Tag on Display 

 

LCD and LED for diagnostic indication 

 

Gratuitous ARP after CPU configuration and as active interface (redundancy) 

 

Supports up to128 simultaneous connections 

 

Protection against flood attacks
