Description

The Allen-Bradley 1771-ACNR15 is a ControlNet Remote I/O Adapter module designed for the PLC-5 platform. This module serves as a communication interface, enabling 1771 I/O chassis to communicate over a ControlNet network. It features two-port redundant media support, ensuring high availability and robust data transmission in industrial environments. This specific model is uniquely required for applications utilizing the ControlNet PLC-5 backup system (1785-CHBM).

Features

  • Two-port redundant media support for high-reliability communication.
  • Designed for ControlNet 1.5 and beyond.
  • Compatible with 1771 I/O chassis systems.
  • Required for PLC-5 backup system configurations.
  • Discontinued by the manufacturer as of 2012.

Applications

This adapter is primarily used in legacy PLC-5 control systems where remote I/O distribution via ControlNet is necessary. It is essential for redundant control architectures requiring the 1785-CHBM backup module.
