Features:
- ControlLogix Communication module
- communication module that support Ethernet I/P communication protocol
- This module has a single RJ45 port for connection to Ethernet network
This is an Ethernet/IP (EtherNet/IP) interface communication module. It supports general message passing, real-time I/O message passing, and information exchange, suitable for applications such as real-time control, time synchronization, and motion control. The 1756-EN2T complies with the CIP safety standard, allowing simultaneous transmission of safety data, control data, and diagnostic information. It utilizes advanced communication chips and physical media.
The 1756-EN2T supports Ethernet/IP communication rates from 10 to 100 Mbps and uses twisted-pair copper wire media. It supports 256 Logix connections and 128 TCP/IP connections. On an Ethernet/IP network, it can support up to 8-axis integrated motion control, with an operating current of 1 A (5.1 V DC). Its maximum power consumption is 5.1 watts, and its heat dissipation is 17.4 BTU/hour.
The 1756-EN2T Allen Bradley Communication module may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The 1756-EN2T is a ControlLogix communication adapter that supports the Ethernet I/P protocol. This module is a single-slot module and can be installed in any slot of the ControlLogix chassis. It is equipped with an RJ45 port for Ethernet connection.
1. High-speed distributed remote I/O control: This module acts as a central scanner, controlling remote I/O cabinets throughout the factory floor. It continuously scans digital, analog, and dedicated modules at precise request packet intervals (RPI).
2. Plant-wide HMI, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, and enterprise-level connectivity: The 1756-EN2T logically connects physical machines to the monitoring software layer network.
3. VFD coordination: In modern manufacturing, it coordinates multi-motor drive arrays via a single Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for hardwired point-to-point I/O links.
4. Point-to-point messaging between PLCs: This module supports horizontal data integration between different production lines within the factory.
