Allen Bradley 1794-AENT EtherNet/IP Communication Adapter for FLEX I/O Systems

The Allen Bradley 1794-AENT is a high-performance EtherNet/IP adapter module engineered for seamless integration within FLEX I/O distributed control architectures. This industrial-grade communication interface delivers reliable 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connectivity, enabling real-time data exchange between FLEX I/O modules and ControlLogix, CompactLogix, or other EtherNet/IP-enabled controllers.

Technical Specifications

  • Communication Protocol: EtherNet/IP (Industrial Protocol)
  • Network Speed: 10/100 Mbps auto-negotiation
  • I/O Capacity: Supports up to 8 I/O modules per adapter
  • Power Consumption: 5V DC @ 180mA, 24V DC @ 50mA
  • Operating Temperature: 0°C to 60°C (32°F to 140°F)
  • Mounting: DIN rail compatible with 1794 terminal base
  • Diagnostic LEDs: Module status, network activity, and fault indicators
  • Conformal Coating: Available for harsh environments

Industrial Applications

The 1794-AENT adapter excels in diverse automation scenarios including manufacturing assembly lines, process control systems, material handling operations, and packaging machinery. Its robust design supports distributed I/O architectures where remote sensor and actuator integration is critical for operational efficiency.

System Integration & Solutions

Deploy the 1794-AENT within Allen Bradley Integrated Architecture environments to create scalable, modular control systems. The adapter seamlessly connects analog input/output modules, digital I/O, specialty modules, and safety components to your primary controller via standard Ethernet infrastructure, reducing installation complexity and wiring costs.

Configuration & Compatibility

Compatible with RSLogix 5000, Studio 5000, and Connected Components Workbench programming environments. The module supports explicit messaging and implicit I/O connections, with configuration through standard EDS (Electronic Data Sheet) files. Firmware updates ensure long-term compatibility with evolving network standards.

Common Questions & Answers

Q: Can the 1794-AENT support redundant network configurations?
A: The standard 1794-AENT provides single network connectivity. For redundant applications, consider the 1794-AENTR or 1794-AENTRXT models with dual Ethernet ports.

Q: What is the maximum cable distance for EtherNet/IP connections?
A: Standard Ethernet cabling supports up to 100 meters (328 feet) between network devices using Cat5e or better cabling.

Q: Is this module hot-swappable?
A: Yes, the 1794-AENT supports hot-swap capability when properly configured, allowing module replacement without powering down the entire I/O rack.

Warranty & Support

All Allen Bradley 1794-AENT modules include a comprehensive 12-month manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Technical support and replacement services ensure minimal downtime for critical automation systems.
