    Create a system of sensors and actuators that you can remotely update, view measurements from, and receive error messages in real time. IO Link systems minimize downtime by locating issues such as cut cables or dirty sensors quickly. They send only digital signals to your PLC, regardless of whether your sensors and actuators send digital or analog signals. Because these systems send digital signals, they’re more reliable and less prone to data error and signal loss than analog signals. It also means you don't have to use expensive shielded cables since they resist EMI.
    When retrofitting an existing system, you'll need to make sure your PLC can incorporate IO Link. Check with your PLC manufacturer—most have hardware that allows you to upgrade your PLC to run IO Link.
    Note: Sockets may have extra holes on their face that are not used.
    Converters

    Converters translate analog signals to digital signals, making sensors and actuators IO-Link compatible. They are required to connect analog components to controllers and modules.
    IP67—IP67 rated components can be temporarily submerged in water.
    Enclosure Rating—IP rated components block out dust and withstand some water, so they do not require an enclosure. Ports that are unused must be capped to maintain their rating.
