About the Allen-Bradley 1756-CNB

The Allen-Bradley 1756-CNB is a ControlLogix Communication Module for ControlNet, according to Rockwell Automation's product data. Rockwell lists one ControlNet BNC interface, one channel, a transmission rate of 5000 kbps, a maximum of 99 nodes and a maximum of 64 connections. It is chassis based, occupies one slot and can be fitted in any slot, and it also has one NAP RJ45 port. Rockwell gives the lifecycle status as Discontinued and names the 1756-CN2 as the replacement, with the category Engineering Replacement.

What is the 1756-CNB used for?

The 1756-CNB connects a ControlLogix chassis to a ControlNet network. Rockwell specifies 1786-RG6 quad shield RG6 coaxial cable for the ControlNet port and 1786-CP cable for the NAP port. It is used where a chassis-based ControlLogix system needs to communicate over ControlNet.

Lifecycle and successor

Discontinued.

OEM successor: 1756-CN2
