Information About 1783-BMS20CL
The 1783-BMS20CL belongs to the Stratix 5700 family of managed Ethernet switches, built on Cisco technology and optimized for integration with Rockwell Automation’s Integrated Architecture. It supports industrial protocols such as EtherNet/IP and CIP for communication with Logix controllers, I/O devices, and visualization systems. With 20 total ports, the switch provides high flexibility: 16 × 10/100 Mbps copper ports, 2 × combo copper/SFP ports, and 2 × SFP slots for fiber connectivity. It is powered by dual DC inputs (12–48 VDC), with current draw between 0.5–3 A, typical power consumption of 21 W, and peak up to 30 W. Device Level Ring (DLR) capability enables resilient topologies with supervisor mode for diagnostics and alternate routing in case of a break. The switch features predefined Logix tags, FactoryTalk View faceplates, and Add-On Profiles for seamless Studio 5000 integration. Housed in an open-style enclosure, it requires panel installation in a protected environment. It operates in harsh conditions with an extended temperature range of -40 to 60 °C, shock and vibration ratings for industrial use, and isolation tested at 850 V DC.
Key Features:
-
Ports: 20 total – 16 Fast Ethernet copper, 2 combo copper/SFP, 2 SFP slots.
-
Speed: Supports 10/100 Mbps copper and fiber, plus gigabit capability on combo ports.
-
Power Supply: Dual 12–48 VDC inputs, 0.5–3 A current draw, 21 W typical consumption.
-
Topology Support: Linear, star, and Device Level Ring (DLR) with supervisor diagnostics.
-
Integration: Predefined Logix tags, FactoryTalk View faceplates, and Add-On Profiles for easy configuration.
-
Diagnostics: Built-in DLR supervisor mode for real-time monitoring and fault handling.
-
Environmental Ratings: Operating temperature -40 to 60 °C, isolation tested at 850 V DC.
-
Enclosure: Open-type design for installation inside protective industrial cabinets.
The 1783-BMS20CL delivers flexible, secure, and resilient networking for EtherNet/IP-based industrial automation systems.
