Grounding Considerations
The grounding and bonding must be of equal potential between all devices in
the communication coverage area.
Connect the Module to the EtherNet/IP Network
Follow this procedure to connect the module to the network.
If you connect or disconnect the communication cable with power applied to
this module or any device on the network, an electrical arc can occur. This
could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
1. Attach the cable with the RJ45 connector to the Ethernet port on the
bottom of the module as shown.
2. Attach the other end of the cable to the devices in your network.
