What is Remote I/O?

Remote I/O (Input/Output) refers to a system where I/O modules are located remotely from the central controller (e.g., PLC, PAC, or computer). These modules are connected to the controller via a communication network. This allows for distributed control and monitoring, reducing wiring costs and complexity, particularly in large or geographically dispersed applications. It's commonly used in industrial automation, building automation, and other applications where sensors and actuators are spread across a wide area.
