Modicon M580 automation platform Modicon M580 Communication modules OPC UA module Presentation The BMENUA0100 OPC UA module is an Ethernet communication module with an embedded OPC UA server for communication with OPC UA clients, including SCADA. It brings high-performance OPC UA capabilities and additional cybersecurity to Modicon M580 ePAC systems. Combined with OPC UA module, Modicon M580 CPU also acquires OPC UA client capability allowing it to aggregate data coming from different OPC UA servers or to enable peer-to-peer communication between PLCs. OPC UA (Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture) is a modern, secure, open, reliable standard for industrial communications. It defines a common infrastructure model to facilitate information exchange for industrial processes, including information context via meta-data, helping to ensure open interoperability, eliminating engineering repetition, simplifying system configuration, and reducing maintenance overhead. Description 1 LED array 2 Control port with Ethernet link and activity LEDs 3 Ethernet backplane port 4 X-bus backplane port 5 Cybersecurity mode rotary switch. The three switch positions are: - Secured - Standard - Security reset The BMENUA0100 module can be installed in any X80 Ethernet backplane slot in the head rack of a Modicon M580 ePAC system. Features The OPC UA module is available in two designs: b BMENUA0100 for standard environments b BMENUA0100H for severe environments (1) The module includes the following features: b Cybersecurity: Improved security by design features including encrypted firmware, network isolation, IP forwarding, IPsec integration, and full implementation of OPC UA cybersecurity features. b Scalable performance: The module is designed to provide scalable performance from low bandwidth IIoT connectivity through to highly demanding operational SCADA connections with thousands of monitored variables without impacting Modicon M580 CPU scan rate. b Simplified engineering: Integrated access to Modicon M580 ePAC data dictionary including simple or structured data types, online variable changes with no break in system communications and advanced, predefined diagnostic information.
