Select Engineered Systems RPNIC3 Network Interface Card

Overview

The Select Engineered Systems RPNIC3 is an optional, field-installable Network Interface Card that provides a plug-in TCP/IP interface for all CAT and most TEC series products. The RPNIC3 is powered directly from the connected CAT or TEC unit and ships pre-assigned with a MAC address and a default TCP/IP address.
