I/O Modules

The Z-Link fiber optic bus connects the I/O peripherals to the MLK-FZ Master-Link

• The Z-Link is a fiber optic ring connection which starts from the Master-Link, connects all the Z-Link nodes and ends on the Master-Link
• Up to 25 Z-Link peripherals are supported, with a mix of any type of input or output, in any order
• The maximum distance between the Master Link and the Z-Link node, or between the nodes, is 30 meters.

The optical fiber, completely immune to electrical noise of any kind, allows this bus to immediately comply with the strictest EMC standards.
