Product Description:
The Allen-Bradley 1788-EN2DNR is a communication module that acts as a gateway between EtherNet/IP and DeviceNet networks. This is especially useful in situations where you have existing DeviceNet devices that you need to integrate into a newer control system that uses EtherNet/IP. The key feature of this specific model is its support for Device Level Ring (DLR) on the EtherNet/IP side. DLR provides network redundancy by creating a ring topology, so if a cable break occurs, communication can continue through the other path of the ring.
At DD Parts Solution, we may offer both new and used/refurbished 1788-EN2DNR linking devices, depending on availability.
Key Features:
- EtherNet/IP to DeviceNet Linking: Bridges the gap between these two common industrial communication protocols.
- DLR Support (Device Level Ring): Provides network redundancy on the EtherNet/IP side.
- Master/Scanner and Slave/Adapter Functionality: Can act as either a master/scanner on the DeviceNet network or a slave/adapter on the EtherNet/IP network.
- Configuration via RSNetWorx for DeviceNet Software: Uses Rockwell Automation's RSNetWorx software for configuration.
- Compact Design: Designed for DIN rail mounting.
- New and Used Options (Availability Varies):
