Features:
- Redundancy-ready base: A second EIOC can be added to the same carrier when the DeltaV and network design are prepared for a redundant pair.
- Consolidated connections: Power entry and isolated device-network interfaces remain associated with the EIOC assembly instead of being improvised around the card.
- Serviceable architecture: The carrier defines a stable mounting point while EIOCs and isolation ports remain separately identifiable service items.
KL4104X1-BA1 forms the physical base of a DeltaV EIOC installation rather than performing Ethernet protocol processing itself.
Its value is the prepared simplex-or-redundant layout: the same carrier can host the active interface and a matched standby interface.
Selection still depends on the installed EIOC hardware, isolation-port type, power arrangement and available cabinet rail space.
Apter Power can help confirm the Emerson KL4104X1-BA1 DeltaV EIOC Dual Horizontal Carrier, installed EIOC hardware and required isolation ports before quotation.

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- Stable equipment base: The carrier keeps the EIOC electronics, power entries and device-network isolation points in one repeatable cabinet location.
- Simplex starting point: One installed EIOC can use the carrier while leaving a defined path for later redundancy.
- Paired-card layout: Two matching EIOCs share the carrier when a redundant design is commissioned.
- Independent processing: Protocol handling remains in the EIOC, so replacing the carrier does not change the configured device protocol by itself.
- Isolation-port boundary: Replaceable Ethernet Isolation Ports separate the device network connection from the EIOC assembly.
- Copper link option: The documented twisted-pair isolation port supports the standard field-network connection without changing the carrier identity.
- Redundant path planning: A second card only improves continuity when the primary and secondary network paths are engineered correctly.
- Control-network context: The carrier belongs to an EIOC node that connects Ethernet devices into the DeltaV control environment.
- Label preservation: Recording the two card positions, power feeds and isolation ports prevents the redundant sides from being reversed during work.
- Space verification: Horizontal rail clearance must be checked before staging the carrier because orientation is part of the installation design.
- Component boundary: The carrier is a spare part; EIOCs, covers, isolation ports and power plugs are separate unless the order explicitly includes them.
- Acceptance evidence: Card recognition, network communication and redundancy state should be verified separately after installation.
- Ethernet-device integration: Supports Ethernet Device Networks that use the protocol configured for the EIOC, including the manufacturer-listed drive, PLC, switchgear and intelligent-device contexts.
- Redundant interface cabinets: Provides a prepared base where loss of one EIOC should not remove the complete integration node.
- Brownfield expansion: Adds a defined EIOC mounting point without assigning all connected Ethernet data processing to a separate controller.
- Maintenance spares: Replaces an identified dual carrier while allowing verified EIOC and isolation-port components to remain controlled separately.
