Description Reviews

The Allen-Bradley 1756-CNBR/E is a Series E ControlNet Bridge Redundancy module designed for the ControlLogix architecture. This single-slot interface module provides a deterministic connection between ControlLogix controllers and the ControlNet network. By utilizing dual communication channels, this module ensures high availability for scheduled I/O data and unscheduled messaging, effectively mitigating the risk of network downtime caused by physical media failures.

Features

Dual-Channel Media Redundancy: Monitors signal integrity across two coaxial lines. In the event of a cable break or tap disconnection, the module automatically switches to the secondary channel to maintain continuous communication.
Deterministic Performance: Maintains a consistent 5 Mbps transmission speed, suitable for time-critical control applications.
High Capacity: Supports up to 99 nodes on a single network and manages up to 64 concurrent system connections.
Flexible Configuration: Compatible with standard ControlLogix chassis and power supplies, facilitating integration into existing control systems.

Applications

This module is intended for use in industrial environments requiring high-reliability networking, such as distributed I/O systems, multi-controller synchronization, and critical process control where network redundancy is a requirement to prevent production interruptions.
