Features:
- Extends 100 Mbps industrial Ethernet communication over multi-mode fiber for distances up to 2 kilometers.
- Supports flexible copper and fiber network structures through two RJ-45 ports and two SFP cages.
- Reduces service time through hot-swapping, SD card configuration transfer, LED indication, and WinLoader firmware upgrades.
General Electric IC695SPF002A addresses communication challenges found in large industrial facilities where control equipment is distributed across wide areas. Conventional Ethernet copper cabling normally has a much shorter practical transmission range and can be affected by strong electrical noise. Multi-mode fiber provides a non-conductive communication path that is highly resistant to electromagnetic interference. Such performance is valuable near high-voltage motors, variable-frequency drives, generators, and heavy electrical machinery. The extended optical link also reduces the need for intermediate copper network devices.
Within a PACSystems RX3i installation, General Electric IC695SPF002A helps link remote automation stations to the central control network. Remote racks can collect field input information and receive output commands through the PROFINET communication structure. Mixed-media connectivity gives engineers greater freedom when combining existing copper segments with new fiber backbone links. Status LEDs support faster visual inspection during commissioning and troubleshooting. The compact pluggable format also allows the optical interface to be added without occupying excessive cabinet space.
General Electric IC695SPF002A is applicable to power plants, water treatment facilities, manufacturing sites, process plants, and other operations requiring dependable long-distance communication. A maximum fiber reach of 2 kilometers allows separate production zones or control rooms to remain connected through one automation network. Hot-swapping helps reduce interruption when maintenance or replacement becomes necessary. Device identification information can be retained on an SD card and transferred to replacement hardware. Firmware updates are completed through the temporary USB maintenance connection using WinLoader.
The IC695SPF002A General Electric Small form Factor Pluggable Module may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

- Long-Distance Networking: Used for bus expansion and remote distributed I/O communication of the RX3i control system across factories and workshops.
- High Electromagnetic Interference: Suitable for environments with strong electromagnetic interference, such as steel mills and substations, utilizing fiber optic media to achieve zero-interference transmission.
- Redundant Network Construction: In critical industrial sites, in conjunction with Ethernet modules, construct a highly available MRP ring network.
- Infrastructure Interconnection: Used for control networks requiring high-bandwidth data backhaul over several kilometers, such as in water treatment and rail transportation.
- Power Off Operation: Before inserting or removing the module, the power to the PACSystems RX3i backplane must be turned off.
- Electrostatic Discharge Protection: Operators must wear anti-static wrist straps to prevent static electricity from damaging the delicate internal circuitry.
- Aligning the Slot: Align the module's gold contacts with the SFP slot of the RX3i controller or Ethernet module.
- Pushing In and Locking: Push the module in parallel until a "click" is heard, ensuring the mechanical latches are fully locked.
- Fiber Optic Connection: Remove the dust plug and correctly insert the LC type dual-core fiber optic patch cord into the module's optical interface.
- Laser Safety: This module is a Class 1 laser product. It is strictly forbidden to look directly at the fiber optic interface while the module is powered on.
- Temperature Monitoring: Prolonged operation outside the nominal operating temperature range of 0°C to 60°C is strictly prohibited.
- Dust Protection: When not connected to fiber optic cables, the original dust plug must be inserted immediately to prevent contamination of the optical path.
- Matching Voltage: Ensure stable power supply to the baseboard; abnormal voltage fluctuations may damage the module's internal chips.
