Introduction

The ioPAC 6500 Series (also referred to as Intelligent Integrated Node or IIN) is an advanced Linux-based RTU featuring a built-in Layer-2 managed switch. Equipped with an Arm Cortex-A53 quad-core CPU, the ioPAC 6500 Series delivers robust performance.

Error–proof Design With Arrow Pins

The arrow-pin design on the I/O and terminal block (TB) modules prevents erroneous installations. Each I/O module has its own TB module with a unique TB arrow ID.

Fully Modular Design

The ioPAC 6500 Series features a unique Lego-like mechanical design that allows for flexible deployment while minimizing installation efforts. The series can be divided into the components: Backplane modules, power modules, communication modules, expansion modules, CPU modules, I/O modules, and terminal-block modules.
