Compatible SFP Transceiver Modules
Features:
- 20 Fast Ethernet Ports: Features 16 copper RJ45 ports, 2 combo ports, and 2 SFP fiber slots, all operating strictly at 10/100 Mbps
- DLR Redundancy: Natively supports Device Level Ring topology for millisecond-level network fault recovery
- Premier Logix Integration: Uses predefined Logix tags for plug-and-play switch diagnostics directly in Studio 5000
This Ethernet switch supports the Common Industrial Protocol for Ethernet (CIP). CIP is an industry protocol supported by the Open Equipment Vendors Association (ODVA) for communicating with Logix controllers, exchanging data, and interacting with visualization systems. This managed Ethernet switch offers 20 ports, including 16 Fast Ethernet copper (FE) ports supporting 10/100 Mbps, 2 Gigabit Ethernet composite ports supporting 1 Gbps, and 2 Small Form Factor (SNP) slots for Fibre and Gigabit Ethernet.
The 1783-BMS20CL features an open enclosure. It requires installation in an enclosure that protects against field contaminants, dust, moisture, and water. The module operates over a temperature range of -40 to +60 degrees Celsius (-40 to +140 degrees Fahrenheit) and is suitable for ambient temperatures up to 60 degrees Celsius (140 degrees Fahrenheit). This Ethernet switch requires no backplane for installation. It is a standalone device powered by an external power source, capable of providing a maximum current of 0.5…3.0 A within a voltage range of 12-48VDC, and conforms to Class 2/Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) standards.
The 1783-BMS20CL Allen Bradley Stratix 5700 20 Port Managed Switch may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The 1783-BMS20CL manages and routes local data traffic on the factory floor by connecting automation devices like PLCs, HMIs, and drives through its 20 Fast Ethernet ports.
It uses a specialized "Lite" firmware to monitor network health and traffic, while automatically utilizing Device Level Ring (DLR) technology to instantly reroute data along a backup path if a cable gets damaged.
Additionally, it continuously translates its internal diagnostic data into predefined Logix tags, allowing a connected PLC to monitor port status and network alarms in real time without any custom programming.
The 1783-BMS20CL features 2 SFP slots that support 100 Mbps fiber optic plugins. The official compatible Allen-Bradley part numbers are:
1783-SFP100FX: Multi-mode fiber transceiver module (100 Mbps, LC connector)
1783-SFP100LX: Single-mode fiber transceiver module (100 Mbps, LC connector)
