PC cards in all formats for all protocols
As a uniform standard, the cifX PC card family supports all Real-Time Ethernet and fieldbus systems for PC-based automation on the market.
The entire protocol stack is executed on the PC card and data is exchanged with the host via dual-port memory or DMA (Direct Memory Access). Due to the standardized Hilscher platform strategy, all PC cards use the same drivers and tools - regardless of protocol and card format. Hilscher netX technology makes it possible to implement all Real-Time Ethernet protocols with one hardware. A protocol change is carried out by loading a different firmware.
Always the right solution! Whether different cable lengths, M12 sockets, additional NVRAM, extended temperature range, 2-channel cards or remote network interfaces - numerous hardware options always offer the perfect solution for your individual application. In addition, a wide range of device drivers and a free C toolkit ensure usability on all systems.
The PC-based automation market is evolving and the cifX PC card family is keeping pace. By constantly expanding the cifX portfolio with new standards, protocols and formats such as M.2, Mini PCIe Halfsize or CC-Link IE Field, our customers are ideally equipped for new market requirements.
