Yes, the MVI56-MCM may be located in a ControlNet or EtherNet/IP linked remote chassis.
However, the MVI56-MCM connection is very large and will consume a great deal of bandwidth on the network.
Prosoft builds a version of the module that is specifically designed for remote ControlNet chassis, called the MVI56-MCMR.
The "R" stands for "Reduced Data Block".
ProSoft recently released an enhanced platform for the MVI56 modules, including a MVI56E-MCMR reduced data block module.
