The PowerlinkCnConnectionPointType is a subtype of PowerlinkConnectionPointType and adds the POWERLINK Objects that are specific to the POWERLINK Controlled Node. It also provides the possibility to implement POWERLINK Device Profiles and customer specific POWERLINK Objects by adding components of the Type PowerlinkDeviceProfileType.

The PowerlinkCnConnectionPointType is formally defined in Table 18.
