
Flexibility
- Flexible topology: EIP devices may include an Ethernet single port as well as Ethernet dual port, and provide
applicable networks such as linear topology, ring topology and ring topology for faster expansion and easier
management.
- EtherNet/IP works on a TCP/UDP/IP based Ethernet network, uses most widely deployed collections of
Ethernet standards and supports Wifi connection. Even for personnel with no IT background, the network can
still be built up easily.
- Applicable networks include linear topology, ring topology, star topology, Ethernet, EtherNet/IP, one or more
LANs, etc. Configuration can be set via a USB device or an interface.

Simplicity
- Via a connector: Delta provides a full range of product line, including human machine interfaces (HMI),
programmable logic controllers (PLC) and inverter drives, for application in an industrial operation. Simply via a
RJ-45 connector, a network can be built up, saving costs on cables and other connecting tools.
- Single network: In replace with the 3-tier industrial architecture, single network architecture provides 100Mbps
high-speed cyclical and non-cyclical data mapping function, ensuring a complete network diagnosis and
effectively shortening debugging time.
- Graphical user interface designed software: The EIP Builder is graphical user interface designed for intuitive
operation.

Integration
- Data mapping: The EIP Builder provides a consistent setting interface, allowing users to reduce the time to
learn and set up configurations easily.
- Listed device parameters: The EIP Builder presents a parameter list of Delta devices. Instead of looking up in
the user manual, users can quickly check on the parameters from the list.
- EDS file: Users can connect to Delta and other brand EtherNet/IP products via the EDS files.
