Honeywell TC-RPFM01 ControlNet Fiber Optic Module
The Honeywell TC-RPFM01 (part number 97109073) is a ControlNet fiber optic module designed for high-speed industrial control networks within Honeywell Experion PKS and C200 process control systems. Powered by a 5 VDC backplane supply drawing 4 A, the module converts standard coaxial ControlNet signals to fiber optic media. This enables long-distance, noise-immune communication across complex control cabinet topologies and remote I/O locations.
ControlNet Communication and Fiber Conversion
The TC-RPFM01 acts as a physical layer signal converter, extending ControlNet network trunks beyond traditional coaxial distance limits. Operating over fiber optic cables eliminates electrical ground loops and protects deterministic control data transmission against high electromagnetic interference (EMI) commonly found in industrial processing plants.
Power Requirements and Physical Specifications
Designed for chassis-based mounting in standard PLC and DCS racks, the unit operates directly from the backplane 5 VDC supply with a current rating of 4 A. Featuring a compact modular footprint with a weight of 0.35 lbs, it allows straightforward installation into existing chassis slots for network topology expansion.
