Allen-Bradley 1783-HMS8TG4CGR Managed Ethernet Switch

The Allen-Bradley 1783-HMS8TG4CGR Stratix 5400 Managed Ethernet Switch is a 12‑port industrial‑grade switch that delivers robust Layer 2 switching with Layer 3 routing capabilities for factory networks. It combines eight fixed copper RJ‑45 ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) with four combo ports that can operate as copper or fiber, enabling mixed copper/fiber topologies and flexible network layouts. As a member of the Stratix 5400 family, it provides managed Ethernet features such as VLANs, QoS, and centralized configuration to support scalable automation networks on the plant floor. The device is designed for harsh industrial environments and uses two DC input connectors to provide redundancy, supporting 24/48 V DC supplies with an input range of 12–60 VDC. This switch is commonly deployed to interconnect PLCs, HMIs, sensors, and other automation equipment, delivering reliable, traceable Ethernet connectivity for reliable machine-to-machine communication and streamlined network management within Rockwell Automation ecosystems.
