Interface and Communication Details

The 51305896-100 connects to the host chassis through a backplane connector and a dedicated communication port. The modem circuitry handles signal conversion and manages data throughput. Therefore, technicians gain stable network links without extra gateway hardware. The board slides into a card cage slot and secures with standard fasteners.

Physical and Environmental Parameters

The board measures roughly 160 mm by 100 mm by 22 mm and weighs about 0.25 kg. Its thin profile fits dense card cages and simplifies panel layout. Meanwhile, the 0°C to 60°C operating range covers typical control room conditions. The on-board capacitors filter the power rail and absorb transient spikes.

Why This Board Matters

Plant teams value the 51305896-100 for its steady communication and easy replacement. The filtering components protect modem circuits from voltage fluctuations. As a result, link dropouts decline and data integrity improves noticeably. Technicians also appreciate the clear status indicators and quick slot access.
