PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The Allen-Bradley 2711P-RN6K is a PanelView communication module for industrial automation networks. This module provides direct connectivity for Data Highway Plus and DH-485 industrial networks. It features an IP20 protection class enclosure against particulate ingress and accidental physical contact. The hardware operates across an ambient temperature range from 0°C to 50°C. It supports storage temperatures up to 85°C.
The module interfaces with up to 32 active devices across a single DH-485 network topology. It accommodates maximum network run lengths reaching up to 3048 meters. Field connections utilize a 6-pin Phoenix connector alongside an integrated 9-pin D-plug port. The unit withstands operational mechanical shock ratings of 15 g at 11 milliseconds duration. Non-operating shock tolerance reaches 30 g at 11 milliseconds with vibration resistance rated at 2 g.
