Allen-Bradley 1783-BMS10CGL Industrial Ethernet Switch

Allen-Bradley 1783-BMS10CGL Stratix 5700 10-Port Managed Industrial Ethernet Switch is a compact, DIN-rail-mounted Layer 2 Lite switch built for rugged automation settings. It provides 10 ports: eight 10/100BASE-T copper RJ-45 ports for standard Ethernet plus two 10/100/1000 Mbps combo ports that can be used as copper RJ-45 or SFP modules for flexible uplinks. This model runs Lite firmware in the Stratix 5700 family and supports Device Level Ring (DLR) for fast fault recovery in industrial networks, making it suitable for critical automation networks. Power comes from 12–48 V DC with a maximum draw of 2 A (up to 17 W). An alarm relay rated at 1 A at 30 V DC or 0.5 A at 48 V DC provides simple local health signaling. The enclosure is IP30-rated for basic protection in typical factory settings. The 1783-BMS10CGL is designed for industrial networks requiring reliable device segmentation and deterministic communication on EtherNet/IP, and is commonly deployed to connect controllers, HMIs, sensors, and other industrial endpoints while offering centralized management and resilience through Stratix 5700 features.
