Datalogic CM9680 Connection Module, Ethernet / Profinet

Product description

The Datalogic CM9680 connection module is a specialized communication expansion module designed to connect industrial barcode readers with host systems. This component is designed primarily for BC9600 series base stations, which by themselves do not have a built-in interface for data transmission. With this module, you gain the ability to connect wireless readers, such as models from the PowerScan 9600 series, via standard Ethernet or the industrial Profinet protocol. It is an ideal solution for production lines, logistics centers, and warehouse spaces where reliable and fast communication between the reader and a PLC or industrial computer is required.

The plug-and-play architecture ensures that installation and configuration are completed quickly and without the need for complex interventions in the existing infrastructure. The module enables easy switching between different communication standards, protecting your hardware investment. If the requirements for the network topology change in the future or you need to switch to a different protocol, simply replace the module with another one from the CM96xx series. This flexibility prevents the need to purchase an entirely new reader solely due to a change in the communication interface. The module is compatible with wireless readers that use the STAR Cordless or Bluetooth system and enables real-time data transfer to the central system.

• Compatibility: Designed for Datalogic BC9600 and BC9620 base stations.
• Communication interface: Support for Ethernet and Profinet for direct connection to industrial networks.
• Flexibility: Option to replace the module for switching to other protocols (e.g. USB, RS-232) without replacing the reader.
• Weight: 500 g, which ensures stability and a secure fit in the base station.
• Installation: Plug-and-play architecture for rapid deployment and minimization of downtime.
• Use: Ideal for connecting wireless readers to host systems, PLCs, or industrial PCs.

This module is a key add-on for companies that want to maximize the efficiency of data collection. Ensures a stable connection even in demanding industrial conditions and enables easy integration into existing traceability and inventory monitoring systems. Thanks to the use of a standard Ethernet cable, installation is simple and does not require special adapters. Investing in this module increases the lifespan and versatility of your scanning equipment and ensures that your readers will always be compatible with the latest communication standards.
