The PCU2000ETH is a PCI Ethernet network interface card purpose-built for industrial automation and data acquisition. Equipped with an AMD SC520 co-processor running at 133 MHz, it offloads communication protocol execution from the host CPU, enabling independent operation of over 40 industrial network and fieldbus protocols. The card integrates 16 MB SDRAM and 4 MB Flash memory, delivering fast data exchange between PC-based applications and industrial devices across multiple simultaneous connections.
