What you're sourcing
The Mitsubishi NZ2EX2B1N-16D is a programmable controller remote I/O expansion module for MELSEC distributed automation architectures, catalogued under PLC expansion modules. As a slice-style expansion rather than a CPU or specialty card, it extends digital I/O density at the field end of a MELSEC rack — placed remote from the controller and addressed over the distributed-I/O link rather than the backplane.
