The module enables deterministic data exchange between the central FA-M3 processing unit and external host devices, human-machine interfaces (HMIs), or networked controllers. Operating over 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX media, the card processes TCP\/IP and UDP\/IP socket layer protocols, mounting directly into any standard FA-M3 I\/O slot to draw logic power directly from the system backplane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eF3LE12-1T\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYokogawa\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJapan \/ China\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.15 kg net (0.30 kg shipping weight)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e28.9 mm W x 100 mm H x 83.2 mm D\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to +55 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 W to 4 W (5 VDC supplied via FA-M3 backplane)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNetwork Standard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIEEE 802.3 compliant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransfer Speeds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10BASE-T \/ 100BASE-TX (10\/100 Mbps auto-negotiation)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCommunication Mode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull-duplex \/ Half-duplex\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePhysical Interface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle RJ-45 copper port\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransmission Distance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 100 meters over Category 5 or higher UTP cabling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtocols\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTCP\/IP, UDP\/IP socket communications\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e4-20 mA HART Loop Protocol \u0026amp; Channel-to-Channel Isolation Integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe F3LE12-1T interface incorporates internal physical isolation transformers across the RJ-45 Ethernet port to break ground potential loops between control network infrastructure and the host PLC chassis. When operating in distributed cabinets alongside high-density analog modules handling 4-20 mA HART loop protocol instruments or millivolt CJC sensors, the module prevents high-frequency network noise from coupling into the internal 5 VDC system bus. The isolated physical layer maintains signal integrity across adjacent I\/O slots and prevents common-mode noise propagation across local field instrumentation networks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Does the F3LE12-1T require an external 24 VDC power connection to drive Ethernet communications?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. The card draws all required operating current directly from the internal 5 VDC FA-M3 rack backplane logic bus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can the module be inserted or removed while the FA-M3 rack remains powered?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. Hot-swapping the F3LE12-1T module on an energized FA-M3 backplane can cause backplane communication errors and hardware damage. Power down the controller rack before installation or removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What network topology limit applies to the copper RJ-45 Ethernet port?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The point-to-point copper link distance must not exceed 100 meters using standard Category 5 or Category 6 shielded twisted-pair cabling. Longer runs require industrial Ethernet switches or fiber-optic converters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlot Alignment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Align the module card edges with the FA-M3 base unit slot guides and press firmly into the backplane connector until the retaining latch clicks into place.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Shielding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use Category 5e or Category 6 STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) patch cables, connecting the RJ-45 shield shell to the cabinet functional earth (FE) to mitigate industrial EMI.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Strain Relief:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anchor Ethernet cables within 100 mm of the module faceplate to prevent mechanical stress on the RJ-45 connector housing and internal pins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConvection Clearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maintain at least 50 mm of unobstructed space above and below the FA-M3 rack assembly to ensure natural air convection within the specified 0 to +55 deg C operating temperature range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Yokogawa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43796465385562,"sku":"F3LE12-1T","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/5957\/0778\/files\/762..jpg?v=1786073027","url":"https:\/\/www.spareoil.com\/es\/products\/f3le12-1t-fa-m3-yokogawa-ethernet-module-f3le12","provider":"SpareOil Automation","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
