Overview
The terminal modules SIMATIC PCS 7 MTA (Marshaled Termina-
tion Assemblies) enable simple, fast and reliable connection of 
field devices, sensors and actuators to the I/O modules of the 
ET 200M remote I/O stations. They can be used to significantly 
reduce the costs and required work for cabling and commission-
ing, and prevent wiring errors.
The individual SIMATIC PCS 7 MTAs are each tailored to specific 
I/O modules from the ET 200M range (see design for assignment 
table). MTA versions are available for standard I/O modules as 
well as for redundant and safety-related I/O modules. 
The SIMATIC PCS 7 MTAs are connected to the I/O modules us-
ing 3 m or 8 m long preassembled cables.
