Features:
- Redundant High-Speed Communication For LCN And UCN Networks
- Plug-In Paddle Card Design Simplifies Installation And Maintenance
- Compatible With EPNI 51401583-100 Board For Accurate SOE Time Synchronization
The Honeywell 51305896-100 NIM Modem is a critical interface module in industrial process networks, bridging Local Control Network (LCN) and Universal Control Network (UCN) nodes. Its dual BNC ports provide redundant communication, ensuring reliable data transfer for xPM and LM devices.
Designed as a paddle card, the 51305896-100 draws power directly from the NIM backplane and operates over a broad temperature range, supporting diverse industrial environments. It also replaces multiple legacy modules, including PNM, PNM I/O, PNI I/O, and mini-coax, reducing complexity and installation time.
Integration with the Enhanced Process Network Interface (EPNI) board 51401583-100 allows for full synchronization, including optional SOE time coordination via firmware revision 'H'. The Honeywell 51305896-100 NIM Modem enhances system reliability, simplifies network management, and provides a streamlined upgrade path for legacy NIM systems, making it essential for high-availability industrial control applications.
The 51305896-100 Honeywell NIM Modem may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Honeywell 51305896-100 NIM Modem Specs
General
- Manufacturer Honeywell
- Model 51305896-100
- Condition New Original ready stock
- Product Family 51305072-200,51402573-150,51401163-100
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.
- Physical Installation: As a paddle card, it plugs into the back of the NIM frame, providing a direct physical interface to the UCN (Universal Control Network) coaxial cables (A-axis and B-axis).
- Single Board Integration: This model features a highly integrated design; in newer NIM configurations, a single board can replace multiple components in earlier systems, including the PNM, PNM I/O, PNI I/O, and miniature coaxial connectors.
- Redundant Configuration: In production environments, it is typically installed in redundant pairs to ensure high availability of UCN communication.
- Firmware Requirements: If the system requires SOE (Sequence of Events) time synchronization, the accompanying logic board (such as the 51401583-100 EPNI board) must be upgraded to firmware version "H" or higher.
- System Compatibility: Designed specifically for Honeywell TDC 3000 systems.
- Hardware Compatibility: Primarily used as the I/O interface board for the 51401583-100 EPNI (Enhanced Process Network Interface) logic board.
- Standard Compliance: Supports UCN network communication standards, which typically use a 5 Mbps carrier with token bus protocol.
- Cross-Network Communication: Used to connect LCN (Local Control Network) and UCN (Universal Control Network), acting as a data bridge between the two.
- Remote Monitoring: Enables remote data acquisition and control command issuance to field process managers (PM, APM, HPM) via the UCN network.
- Network Gateway: In a network gateway, this modem can be used for carrier with PIN (Plant Information Network) communication.
- System Maintenance and Upgrades: Used to replace older, separate PNM/PNI components in the retrofitting of older TDC 3000 systems, simplifying rack cabling and improving reliability.
