IO-LINK is a worldwide standardised IO technology (IEC 61131-9) for communicating with sensors and actuators. IO-LINK is a point-to-point communication system with 3-condtctor or 5-conductor connection technology for sensors and actuators and unshielded standard sensor lines.
IO-LINK devices are connected with standard commercial IO-LINK masters and can easily be integrated into all commonly used fieldbus and automation systems. 3-pin or 5-pin unshielded standard cables 20m in length between the IO-LINK device and IO-LINK master, are sufficient for connecting IO-LINK devices with IO-LINK masters
