The Beckhoff EK1561 is a single port Ethercat product that converts telegrams from 100BASE-TX to POF-based 100BASE-FX physics. Serving as a plastic optical fibre (POF) junction, it is connected to an E-bus to draw power while also enabling connection to a larger Ethernet-based 100BASE-TX network. POF cables are ideal for shorter distances (up to 50 meters) and are comparatively easier to wire on systems. To provide user feedback, the EK1561 features two LEDs indicating power and communication status. It operates optimally between -25 to +65 degrees Celsius, and if turned off, must be kept within a -40 to +85 degrees Celsius range. Consequently, Beckhoff's EK1561 serves as a pivotal element within a network undergoing the crucial conversion process in automation applications.

Testimonials

We used Servo Supplier to refurbish old drives and buy reconditioned parts. We received great and timely service at a fair price. I recommend them to anyone who has aging equipment and can't find support from their OEMs. Highly recommend.

Bostik Inc.

WE absolutely LOVE Servo Supplier. They are quick, efficient and friendly. Honest too, which is huge in our industry. We deal with many different companies, and these guys are tops in our humble opinion. There has never been an issue with delivery, no warranties, no hidden fees, no surprises. Just what you want in the manufacturing business. Smooth, and we love smooth.

Technomech Inc

First-time customer. The ordering process was completely seamless. The part that we ordered was at our business within 2 days. Which was excellent! We had a piece of equipment down for a little more than 48 hours. Could have been a lot longer had we purchased from one of our normal suppliers.

Steve T. from NF&M International

I found these guys online and needed a somewhat obscure part quickly, and they delivered! Very quick process from the time I requested a quote to the shipping of my items. Great work Servo Supplier team!
