ALLEN BRADLEY 1734-AENT ADAPTADOR

Allen-Bradley 1734-AENT | Ethernet Adapter Module

Compact and High-Performance Communication for POINT I/O Systems

The 1734 aent is a compact and reliable Ethernet Adapter Module developed by Allen-Bradley (Rockwell Automation), specifically for use in POINT I/O systems. This 1734 aent module enables seamless EtherNet/IP communication, ensuring that distributed I/O modules connect efficiently to controllers within industrial automation environments. With a chassis size of 4 and an open enclosure type, the allen bradley 1734 aent is ideal for installations requiring both space efficiency and high performance.

In terms of power, the ab 1734 aent operates at a 24V DC input voltage and supports a maximum inrush current of 6 Amps. It draws 400 milliamps on the field side, has a power consumption of 10.4 Watts at 28.8V DC, and dissipates 5.2 Watts under the same conditions. Additionally, it delivers 1000 milliamps of POINTBus current, making it well-suited for applications with multiple connected modules.

Communication-wise, the 1734 aent specifications include one Ethernet port with support for 10/100 Mbps data rates, working in both half and full duplex modes. It uses a Category 5 RJ-45 connector and supports Star and Tree topologies, providing networking flexibility and robust data transfer.

When it comes to scalability, the point io 1734 aent supports up to 63 expansion modules and a maximum of 504 I/O points, with 31 direct module connections. This makes the 1734 aent an excellent choice for modular automation setups requiring both efficiency and expandability.

Physically, the 1734 aent module measures 30 x 2.16 x 5.25 inches and accommodates wire sizes up to 3/64 inches insulation max. It includes reverse polarity protection and offers 50 Volts of continuous isolation voltage, providing durability and safety in challenging environments.
