Information About 1786-RPFM
The 1786-RPFM is part of Allen-Bradley’s ControlNet communication infrastructure, engineered to support medium-distance fiber connections for industrial networks. Designed for ring topologies, it provides two fiber-optic channels that help create redundant communication paths, improving network resilience and uptime. The module operates on 24 VDC and mounts directly to a DIN rail, allowing straightforward integration into existing network enclosures and control panels. Supporting multimode 62.5/125 µm fiber, the repeater enables reliable data transmission for distances up to 300 meters—making it ideal for distributed equipment, remote control stations, and large manufacturing layouts.
Key Features:
- Dual fiber-optic channels: supports redundant ControlNet ring architectures that maintain communication continuity during link failures or maintenance.
- Medium-distance communication support: extends ControlNet networks up to 300 meters per link using 62.5/125 µm multimode fiber for flexible plant layouts.
- 24 VDC power operation: ensures stable performance and compatibility with industrial control power supplies across automation environments.
- DIN-rail mounting design: enables rapid installation inside control cabinets and simplifies maintenance workflows in distributed network setups.
- Fiber-optic signal repeating: boosts and regenerates ControlNet signals to maintain high communication integrity over longer distances.
- Rugged industrial compliance: certified to CE, UL, CSA, KC, Marine, and RCM standards for global deployment and demanding operating conditions.
- Designed for ControlNet networks: delivers reliable performance in motion systems, process automation, and high-speed control architectures.
- Multimode fiber compatibility: supports standard 62.5/125 µm cables for easy integration with existing plant-level fiber infrastructure.
The 1786-RPFM delivers the reliability and precision required for stable medium-distance ControlNet communication, network redundancy, and dependable fiber-optic connectivity in industrial automation environments.
