Control and Communication Link (CC-Link) is an open network administered as a fully open architecture by the CC-Link Partner Association
(CLPA). Currently over 1000 products are CC-Link certified.
CC-Link guarantees a full 10Mbit/s performance across the whole network, regardless of device type, eliminating hidden bottle necks, common
with other open systems. CC-Link offers you the freedom to integrate a wide variety of automation components into a single, seamless
automation system, including any of the following items on the network:
• Master or local controllers (iQ-R, iQ-F, Q, L, FX)
• HMIs
• VFDs
• Discrete I/O (in a wide variety of types and configurations)
• Analog I/O
• High speed counters

Water resistant M12 connectors: Selected I/O blocks are available in an IP67 water resistant format. These use connectors that use an
M12 metric threaded connector to make all connections. Benefits include:
• Water tight connections for installations where exposure to liquids is required
• In some installations, these blocks may be mounted directly on a machine without the need for an enclosure, reducing system cost.
Miscellaneous accessories: The following accessories are also available: Note the quantity per box and calculate the correct order
quantity accordingly.
One Touch Connector (OTC): OTCs offer significant installation and maintenance benefits as follows:
• IDC (insulation displacement connector) type connection avoids need for stripping or terminating wiring with lugs. Simply cut wiring to
length, insert into connector and snap shut to make a reliable connection. These are available for I/O, network and power connections.
• Easily connected and disconnected individually or in groups to assist maintenance
• Compact design minimizes I/O block size
