Properties / services

1.1

Application

The CP 343-1 communications processor is intended for operation in a SIMATIC S7-300,
SIMATIC C7-300 automation system or SINUMERIK 840D power line. It allows the
connection of the S7-300 to Industrial Ethernet and supports PROFINET IO.
To integrate the CP in a linear bus or a ring, to connect a further Ethernet device or to use
PROFINET media redundancy, a 2-port ERTEC real-time switch with autocrossing,
autonegotiation and autosensing was integrated.
