Description
Product Overview
The IS420UCSBH1A controller module from GE's Mark VIe series delivers high-speed, reliable performance for industrial control systems. It integrates a 600 MHz Intel EP80579 processor and runs the QNX Neutrino real-time operating system. This compact, panel-mounted unit eliminates traditional backplane I/O, relying instead on dedicated IONet Ethernet interfaces for seamless communication with I/O packs.
The IS420UCSBH1A features a single-module architecture with no fan, battery, or jumper settings, reducing maintenance and installation complexity. Its flash memory allows easy updates, and its design ensures uninterrupted input data flow—even during controller maintenance.
