Product Introduction
The Schneider Electric 140XBP00600 is a 6-slot backplane rack designed for the Modicon Quantum automation platform. Serving as a critical infrastructure component, this backplane provides the mechanical and electrical interconnection between various Quantum modules, such as CPUs, power supplies, I/O modules, and communication adapters.
Designed for industrial automation systems, the 140XBP00600 allows users to organize their system modules in a compact, secure, and highly reliable format. The 6-slot configuration is ideal for smaller to medium-sized control systems where limited module count or footprint is a requirement. It supports high-speed data exchange among modules via the integrated internal bus and is fully compatible with other Modicon Quantum components.
Backed by Schneider Electric’s engineering standards, this backplane rack ensures long-term durability, ease of installation, and seamless operation in demanding environments.
