It features a stable in-rack mounting design and hot-swappable support for most I\/O modules, supporting Schneider Electric's Easy Quantum modernization strategy. The backplane centers on a CPS power-supply slot and four I\/O slots, with extension connectors to accommodate X-bus rack expansion, and includes Ethernet and X-bus connectors to accept both X-bus and Ethernet modules. The mechanical design includes mounting points for shielding connection bars, a protective ground screw, and mounting holes sized for common fasteners to secure the assembly in a rack. This backplane enables mixed Ethernet\/X-bus I\/O configurations in a compact footprint, simplifying upgrades from older Modicon hardware while preserving module compatibility in standard X80 chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"SCHNEIDER","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46283955372266,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8039\/3450\/files\/GTG-STOCK-021.png?v=1788727428","url":"https:\/\/gtghardware.com\/products\/schneider-electric-bmexbp0400-ethernet-backplane-4-slot","provider":"GTG Hardware","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
