Balluff BNI00E1 IO-Link Master, model BNI EIP-538-005-Z063, is an IP67 network block that connects IO-Link devices and standard discrete I/O to an EtherNet/IP control network.
Balluff lists the exact order code BNI00E1 as an EtherNet/IP module with 8 IO-Link ports. Balluff also indicates that the product is approaching end of availability, with availability shown through March 1, 2027, and identifies BNI00K7 as the recommended alternative.
Key product details
Common applications include machine-mounted distributed I/O, smart-sensor networks, valve manifolds, conveyors, assembly equipment, robotics, tooling, and retrofit projects that need IO-Link connectivity close to field devices.
Compatibility and ordering note: a recommended successor is not automatically a drop-in replacement. Verify EtherNet/IP configuration, port class, power connections, M12 coding, I/O count, IO-Link device configuration, mechanical mounting, PLC tags, and network settings before moving from BNI00E1 to another network block.
