The MVI69-DFNT is an INRAX Ethernet/IP client/server interface module. The module uses onboard Ethernet/IP ports which have minimum and maximum communication speeds of 10 and 100 megabytes per second, respectively. For optimum performance, the MVI69-DFNT should be operated within its rated temperature of 0 degrees Celsius (minimum) and 60 degrees Celsius (maximum). The MVI69-DFNT is a standard 1769 single-slot module and it features only 2 ports; 1 configuration port (upper) and 1 application port (upper). The application port has link and activity LED indicators and an electrical isolation of 1500 Volts RMS at a frequency range of 50 to 60 degrees Celsius for a period of 60 seconds. The MVI69-DFNT client/server interface module contains CE, CSA, CSA CB, cULus, and ATEX certifications and approvals.

When the MVI69-DFNT is used as a server, it allows connected, unconnected, and Ethernet/IP explicit class messaging. Additionally, it allows data to be sourced from other clients on the network. When used as a client-server, the MVI69-DFNT supports ladder logic command control and it accepts 100 commands (user-defined) from a single client. The MVI69-DFNT is compatible with MicroLogix and CompactLogix controllers apart from the 1769-L23E-QBFC1B, 1769-L18x, and 1769-L16x controllers. Additionally, the MVI69-DFNT has a high data throughput, it offers an in-chassis solution and it allows SCADA or other remote devices to access data on the interface module. Note that the MVI69-DFNT has a power supply distance capped at 2. The module features the ProSoft technology which is activated by installing the ProSoft Configuration Builder software consequently opening up the module to be used in a wider range of networks on the industrial floor.
