The ABB NTCL01-A (NTCL01A) is a high-reliability Communication Link Termination Unit designed for the Symphony Harmony and INFI 90 distributed control systems. It serves as the critical physical interface for INFI-Net communication loops, providing secure wiring termination for Network Interface Subsystems (NIS) and Network Link Subsystems (NKLS). The NTCL01-A supports various media types, including twinaxial and coaxial cabling, ensuring stable data transmission across the control network. Engineered with built-in isolation and surge protection, this unit is essential for maintaining the communication integrity of plant loops and peer-to-peer control networks in demanding industrial environments.
Power Generation: Facilitating high-speed data exchange between turbine control systems and central dispatch in power plants.
Distributed Control Networks: Connecting multiple INFI 90 cabinets across large-scale process industries like pulp and paper or chemical refining.
Subsystem Integration: Providing the bridge between local Network Interface Modules and the broader Plant Loop or INFI-Net e-bus.
Utility Monitoring: Ensuring reliable communication for remote monitoring stations in water treatment or grid management facilities.
