Distributed I/O Solution – MITSUBISHI AJ65MBTL1N-16D | CC-Link Remote I/O Series
Where This Product Is Used
The MITSUBISHI AJ65MBTL1N-16D is a compact, thin-type CC-Link remote I/O module engineered for distributed control architectures across demanding industrial environments. Engineers specify this module in applications where field-level digital signals must be reliably aggregated and transmitted to a MELSEC PLC host over CC-Link network infrastructure.
- Automotive Assembly Lines: Monitoring proximity sensors, limit switches, and part-presence detectors across conveyor and transfer systems without running long signal cables back to a central panel.
- Food & Beverage Processing: Collecting 24 VDC digital inputs from filling, capping, and labeling stations in hygienic environments where panel space is constrained.
- Semiconductor & Electronics Manufacturing: Integrating discrete sensor feedback from pick-and-place, inspection, and test equipment into a unified CC-Link network.
- Material Handling & Warehousing: Distributed I/O nodes on sorters, conveyors, and AGV docking stations where the thin-type form factor reduces DIN-rail footprint.
- Machine Tool & CNC Systems: Capturing door interlock, tool-change confirmation, and coolant-level signals at the machine level, reducing wiring complexity.
- Water Treatment & Utilities: Remote monitoring of valve position feedback and pump status across geographically distributed field cabinets.

Why Engineers Specify This Model
- Thin-Type Compact Profile: The BTL1N form factor delivers a significantly reduced DIN-rail footprint compared to standard AJ65 modules, enabling higher I/O density in space-constrained field cabinets.
- CC-Link Native Integration: Plug-and-play compatibility with any CC-Link Ver. 1.10 master module eliminates custom configuration and reduces commissioning time.
- 16-Point DC Input Density: Consolidates up to 16 discrete 24 VDC field signals into a single network node, minimizing cable runs and junction boxes.
- Robust Industrial Rating: Designed to IEC 61131-2 environmental standards, ensuring reliable operation in vibration, temperature, and humidity conditions typical of factory floors.
- Proven MELSEC Ecosystem: Fully supported by Mitsubishi GX Works2/GX Works3 engineering software, with extensive documentation and long-term parts availability.

Application-Specific FAQ
- Q: Is the AJ65MBTL1N-16D compatible with MELSEC iQ-R series PLCs?
- A: Yes. When used with a CC-Link master module (e.g., RJ61BT11), the AJ65MBTL1N-16D operates as a standard CC-Link Ver. 1.10 remote I/O station and is fully compatible with iQ-R series host controllers.
- Q: What is the maximum number of AJ65MBTL1N-16D modules per CC-Link network?
- A: CC-Link supports up to 64 stations per network segment. Each AJ65MBTL1N-16D occupies 1 station, so up to 64 units can be connected per master module (subject to total I/O point limits of the master).
- Q: Can this module be used with third-party CC-Link masters?
- A: Yes, provided the master is CLPA-certified and supports CC-Link Ver. 1.10. Interoperability should be verified against the master manufacturer’s compatibility list.
- Q: What cable type is required for CC-Link wiring?
- A: Mitsubishi recommends CLPA-certified CC-Link dedicated cable (e.g., FANC-SB). Standard shielded twisted-pair cable may be used for short distances in low-noise environments, but dedicated cable is required for full specification compliance.
- Q: Does Konmask provide a warranty on this module?
- A: Yes. New-in-box units carry the manufacturer’s standard warranty. Tested surplus units are covered by Konmask’s 90-day functional warranty. Contact us for full warranty terms.
