Product Description

The BMEXBP0400 (Part Number: BMEXBP0400) is a high-performance communication backplane designed for the Modicon X80 automation platform. It enables seamless data exchange between advanced BME processors, standard BMX processors, and various I/O modules. By integrating both X-bus and Ethernet backplane connections, it provides a dual-bus architecture that supports high-speed data throughput and complex industrial networking requirements.

Built for rugged industrial environments, the BMEXBP0400 features high vibration and shock resistance. Its 4-slot configuration is ideal for compact control systems requiring local intelligence and Ethernet-based connectivity without the footprint of larger racks.
