GE IC695ACC403 Ethernet/IP Communication Adapter
Product Overview
The GE IC695ACC403 is an Ethernet/IP communication adapter designed for GE’s RX3i PACSystems, a key platform in industrial automation. This module enables seamless data exchange between the RX3i PLC and other devices on an Ethernet/IP network, such as HMIs, SCADA systems, and other PLCs. It acts as a network gateway, ensuring real-time communication that is critical for coordinating tasks in modern industrial setups.
As part of the IC695 Series, the GE IC695ACC403 integrates with RX3i backplanes like the IC694CHS790 and works with CPUs such as the IC694CPU331. It fits into any I/O slot of the backplane, drawing power through the rack and communicating with the CPU via the backplane bus. The IC695ACC403 supports the Ethernet/IP protocol, a widely used standard in industrial networks, with data transfer speeds of 10/100 Mbps (auto-negotiating). This allows fast transmission of control signals and status updates across the network.
Built for tough industrial environments, the GE IC695ACC403 operates in temperatures from 0°C to 60°C and humidity up to 95% (non-condensing). It features galvanic isolation (250 V AC) to resist electrical noise and ground loops, ensuring reliable performance near large motors or high-voltage equipment. Even as a legacy model, the GE IC695ACC403 remains vital for maintaining older RX3i systems, helping businesses avoid full upgrades while keeping their automation networks functional.

Main features and advantages
Ethernet/IP compatibility: The IC695ACC403 supports Ethernet/IP, the most widely used industrial Ethernet protocol. This allows the RX3i PLC to connect to HMIs, SCADA systems, and other PLCs on a standard Ethernet network, making it easy to integrate into existing IT/OT infrastructures.
Fast data transfer: With 10/100 Mbps speeds, the module ensures quick transmission of control signals and status updates. This speed is essential for real-time applications, such as adjusting production lines based on live data from sensors.
Reliable isolation: Galvanic isolation (250 V AC) protects the module from electrical noise and ground loops. This ensures stable communication in noisy environments, like factories with large motors or welding equipment, where interference could disrupt data flow.
Easy integration: The IC695ACC403 fits into any I/O slot of RX3i backplanes without special tools. It works with all RX3i CPUs and I/O modules, so it can be added to existing systems without reconfiguring other components.
Tough design: The module operates in temperatures from 0°C to 60°C and resists humidity and dust. This durability makes it suitable for harsh settings, including food processing plants, outdoor installations, and automotive factories, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
Legacy system support: The IC695ACC403 works with older RX3i systems, allowing businesses to keep using their existing hardware. This avoids the high cost of upgrading to newer networks, extending the life of automation infrastructure.

Installation and maintenance
Pre-installation preparations: Check that the IC695ACC403 is compatible with your RX3i backplane (e.g., IC694CHS790) and CPU (e.g., IC694CPU331). Ensure there is an empty I/O slot. Power off the system and disconnect all power sources. Align the module with the slot and push firmly until it clicks into place. Connect an Ethernet cable from the module’s RJ45 port to your network switch. Power on the system and check the module’s LED—solid green means it is working.
Maintenance suggestions: Inspect the IC695ACC403 monthly. Wipe dust from the module and Ethernet port with a dry cloth to prevent overheating or connection issues. Check the Ethernet cable for damage, and ensure the connector is tight—loose cables can cause data drops. If the LED flashes red, power off the system, remove the module, and reinsert it to fix loose connections. Keep a spare IC695ACC403 in a dry, cool area (10–30°C) to replace quickly if needed, minimizing downtime.
Application fields
The GE IC695ACC403 is used in industries where Ethernet/IP networks link automation components:
- Manufacturing: In automotive plants, the module connects the RX3i PLC to HMIs on the production floor. This allows operators to monitor robotic arm movements and adjust settings in real time, ensuring precise assembly and reducing errors.
- Food processing: In bottling facilities, the IC695ACC403 links the PLC to a SCADA system. It sends data on filling speeds and bottle counts, letting managers track production rates and quickly address bottlenecks.
- Water treatment: In wastewater plants, the module enables the PLC to share data with remote monitoring systems. This includes water flow rates and chemical levels, allowing engineers to adjust processes without being on-site.
- Material handling: In warehouses, the IC695ACC403 connects the PLC to conveyor controllers and barcode scanners over Ethernet/IP. This coordination ensures packages are sorted and shipped correctly, improving delivery efficiency.
