Description
GE IC697ACC730 is a high-performance Genius Bus Communication Module designed for GE Fanuc Series 90-70 PLC systems, providing seamless integration and real-time data exchange in industrial automation environments. As a critical component of the Genius I/O network, the IC697ACC730 enables reliable communication between PLC racks, distributed I/O modules, and third-party devices, ensuring efficient coordination in complex control systems. Its modular design and field-proven reliability make it ideal for retrofitting legacy systems or deploying in new industrial installations, while its robust construction withstands harsh operating conditions.
The IC697ACC730 supports 1 Mbps communication speed over the Genius Bus protocol, facilitating fast data transfer for time-sensitive applications. It features dual redundant communication ports (coaxial and twisted-pair) to ensure network resilience, with automatic failover in case of cable or port failure. The module’s IP20-rated enclosure protects against dust and accidental contact, while its wide operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C ensures stability in extreme industrial settings. With a compact form factor (150 x 100 x 50 mm) and lightweight design (0.5 kg), the IC697ACC730 optimizes space utilization in control cabinets and simplifies installation.
