MeloAuto-Trusted PLC & DCS Parts Supplier
The GE DS200LDCCG1A DS200LDCCG1ADA Drive Control LAN Communications Board provides high-speed network connectivity for drive systems. This board manages all data traffic on the drive control local area network. You will find it linking multiple drive controllers in industrial automation environments. It ensures reliable command delivery and precise feedback collection across the network.
Core Technical Specifications
The GE DS200LDCCG1A DS200LDCCG1ADA Drive Control LAN Communications Board measures 28.5 cm in width and 20.5 cm in height. Its board depth equals 2.0 cm for standard panel or rack mounting. The total assembly weighs approximately 0.68 kilograms. Two fiber optic communication ports reside on the board’s front edge. Each port supports full-duplex data transmission at a steady 10 Mbps.

Connectors and LED Status Indicators
The GE DS200LDCCG1A DS200LDCCG1ADA Drive Control LAN Communications Board uses one 64-pin DIN connector for backplane communication. This connector exchanges all command and status data with the main drive processor. Two ST-type fiber optic ports separate transmit (TX) and receive (RX) functions clearly. A green LED confirms an active network link connection at all times. A yellow LED flashes during active data transmission or packet reception. Moreover, a red LED signals a CRC error or network timeout event immediately.
Network Management and Diagnostic Features
This communications board automatically detects and assigns node addresses on the LAN. It forwards data packets only to their intended destination drive controller. The board performs cyclic redundancy checking on every incoming and outgoing message. Furthermore, the GE DS200LDCCG1A DS200LDCCG1ADA Drive Control LAN Communications Board stores network error logs in onboard non-volatile memory. You can retrieve these diagnostic logs through the drive’s front panel or software interface. This feature greatly simplifies troubleshooting of intermittent communication faults.
Energy Storage and Galvanic Isolation
This communications board contains no electrolytic capacitors on any signal path. Therefore, it stores negligible residual energy after power removal. Each fiber optic port provides complete galvanic isolation between connected drives. This isolation effectively prevents ground loops from corrupting data integrity. The GE DS200LDCCG1A DS200LDCCG1ADA Drive Control LAN Communications Board operates reliably from 0°C to +50°C ambient temperature. Use only multimode fiber cables with ST connectors for proper signal strength. Do not exceed the maximum fiber length of 2000 meters per network segment.
