The VW3AP3608: This module cannot be ordered alone — it must be combined with a standard enclosure. That constraint typically means it ships as part of a drive package or panel assembly, not as a standalone field swap. If you are sourcing it as a spare, confirm the enclosure arrangement with your drive model.
Deployment context
The two RJ45 connectors are wired for CANopen daisy-chain topology, so the module sits between drives in a multidrop line. No termination resistor inside the module — plan for external termination at the physical ends of the CAN bus. The Altivar range covers a wide power band (0.18 kW to several hundred kW), so verify the drive firmware revision supports CANmotion if you need synchronized motion profiles.
