The Allen-Bradley 1761-NET-ENI is a versatile EtherNet/IP Interface Module designed to seamlessly integrate MicroLogix and SLC 500 family controllers into an EtherNet/IP network. This module acts as a bridge, connecting the controller’s DH-485 or RS-232 port to an Ethernet network, enabling high-speed data exchange, remote programming, and online monitoring. It supports peer-to-peer messaging, allowing controllers to communicate directly with other devices on the network, such as other PLCs, HMIs, and SCADA systems. The 1761-NET-ENI is a cost-effective solution for modernizing legacy automation systems, providing them with the connectivity required for today’s integrated manufacturing environments.
