GE VMIVME-5567-000
Overview
GE VMIVME-5567-000 is a core component of the PACSystems RX7i series from GE Intelligent Platforms (now Emerson Automation). It is designed for industrial automation systems to enable data sharing and high-speed communication between PLCs. Based on Reflective Memory technology, it provides deterministic data transmission via a fiber optic network, ensuring the real-time performance and reliability of industrial control systems. This module operates independently of the CPU, enabling data exchange without CPU processing, making it suitable for high-demand industrial scenarios.
