Product Description P/N: 1784-PCM5
Description
The Allen-Bradley 1784-PCM5 is a DH+ communication cable designed for interfacing 1784-PCMK communication cards with PLC-2, PLC-3, and PLC-5 controllers. Supporting a 230 kbps Data Highway Plus network, the 1784-PCM5 ensures reliable data exchange between industrial control systems and PC-based programming devices. Its wedge-supported connector design provides secure strain relief and protects both the cable and communication card during field use.

Information About 1784-PCM5
The 1784-PCM5 belongs to the Allen-Bradley PLC-5 accessory family and enables notebook or PC-based DH+ communication through the 1784-PCMK/B PCMCIA card. It links directly to enhanced and standard PLC processors, allowing configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting over a DH+ network. The cable includes two mechanical wedges to maintain connector stability and prevent accidental disconnection—an essential feature for industrial environments where vibration or movement is present. Compatible with loopback diagnostics when attached to the PCMK card (not to a live DH+ link), the 1784-PCM5 also supports remote I/O scanner capabilities for expanded communication functionality.
Key Features
- DH+ Communication Cable: Provides connectivity to Data Highway Plus networks at 230 kbps.
- PCMK Card Compatible: Designed for 1784-PCMK and 1784-PCMK/B PCMCIA communication cards.
- Secure Connector Wedges: Includes strain-relief wedges to prevent accidental cable disconnection.
- Supports Legacy PLCs: Interfaces with PLC-2, PLC-3, and PLC-5 controllers and enhanced processor versions.
- Loopback Diagnostics Support: Enables diagnostic testing when connected directly to the PCMK card.
- RJ45 Connector Type: Provides a reliable and standardized connection point for DH+ communication.
- Industrial-Grade Durability: Built for field use in programming, monitoring, and diagnostics.
- Remote I/O Capability: Supports scanner functionality through compatible PCMK cards.
The 1784-PCM5 delivers the reliability and precision required for robust DH+ communication and PC-based programming in PLC-5 automation systems.
