5453-754 Woodward Ethernet Communication Interface

5453-754 Woodward Ethernet Communication InterfaceProduct Overview The Woodward 5453 754 serves as the dedicated Ethernet Field Terminal Module (FTM) for Woodward MicroNet and MicroNet Plus VME based control platforms. This module functions as the essential hardware bridge between the internal control backplane and external plant wide networks. It enables critical functions such as remote monitoring, high speed data logging, and software management via Woodwards Graphical Application Programmer

allowing the standby unit to assume full process control without dropping communication to field devices or interrupting critical batch operations
