Product Information
1 NXC-ME260 NetLinx Master-Ethernet Card/Module
Product Information
The NXC-ME260 (FG2010-60) is a Master-Ethernet Card for use within NetLinx systems. This
card provides a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connection and an RJ-11 SPE (Server Port Expander)
connector for use with an AXB-SPE (Server Port Expander). The NXC-ME260 is the only Master
card you will need, as it incorporates the functionality of all previous NetLinx Master Cards
(NXC-M, NXC-ME, and NXC-MPE).
Beyond replacing the previous set of NetLinx Master Cards, the NXC-ME260 represents a
high-performance NetLinx Master Controller. With double the Flash memory (16 MB) and a more
powerful processor (Coldfire
®
5407), the ME260 is faster than previous NetLinx Masters.
The NXC-ME260 can be loaded in the Master card slot of an NXF NetLinx Cardframe, in an NXI
Integrated Controller, or within an NXS-MHS Master/Hub Module.
