Allen-Bradley 1794-AENT Ethernet Interface Module

The Allen-Bradley 1794-AENT Ethernet Interface Module is a FLEX I/O Ethernet/IP adapter that bridges a FLEX I/O backplane to an Ethernet/IP network, providing a single RJ45 port for 10/100 Mbps communication. As a FLEX I/O adapter, it supports EtherNet/IP at 10/100 Mbps over a Cat5-compatible RJ45 connection and can drive up to eight FLEX I/O modules on the FlexBus, with a maximum bus current of 640 mA. The module is powered by 24 V DC (nominal) with a range of 19.2 to 31.2 V and typically consumes about 9.6 W, with status LEDs for Module, Network, and Link to aid diagnostics. IP addressing can be configured using BootP/DHCP, RSLinx Classic, or the Studio 5000 environment, aligning to Rockwell Automation software workflows for seamless integration.
