Preface 

The FreeCon Active PROFINET-POF-Media Converter from Weidmüller has been developed especially for 
usage in industrial PROFINET IRT network applications. It provides extended fiber-optic diagnostic 
capabilities in addition to convert FO communication towards signaling over copper cable. The FreeCon 
Active’s tough IP65 metal housing is perfectly suited for harsh industrial applications.
