Product Description

Description

The Allen-Bradley 1747-C11 is a specialized communication cable designed for industrial automation applications within the SLC 500 product family. This cable facilitates reliable physical connectivity between an SLC 500 processor and an isolated link coupler or a DH-485 communication interface module. Built to withstand standard industrial operating environments, it ensures stable signal transmission for older legacy networks.

This cable is engineered specifically to match the proprietary pinout configurations required by Allen-Bradley hardware, eliminating the need for custom wiring assemblies during system setup or maintenance. It supports dependable data exchange across the DH-485 network architecture.

Features

  • Specifically designed for Allen-Bradley SLC 500 controller and isolated link coupler interfaces
  • Facilitates secure DH-485 network communication setups
  • Manufactured with durable industrial-grade jacketing to resist standard plant floor wear
  • Pre-terminated with correct connectors for rapid, plug-and-play installation
  • Maintains signal integrity over standard panel-to-panel communication distances

Applications

  • Connecting SLC 500 fixed or modular processors to 1747-AIC isolated link couplers
  • Legacy DH-485 network expansions and device integration
  • Industrial control panel maintenance, retrofits, and troubleshooting
  • Communication drops for Operator Interface terminals on older networks

Technical Specifications

Parameter Specification
Manufacturer Allen-Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Product Type Processor to Isolator Cable
Catalog Number 1747-C11
Product Family SLC 500
Compatible Network DH-485
Compatible Hardware SLC 500 Processors, 1747-AIC Link Coupler
Country of Origin United States

Connections / Interfaces

The 1747-C11 cable features factory-molded connectors on each end configured explicitly for the communication ports found on SLC 500 processors and 1747-AIC link couplers. It connects the RJ45 or phoenix-style terminal interfaces depending on the specific module revision, ensuring proper impedance matching and shielding continuity.

Installation Guidelines

  • Power down all connected SLC 500 controllers and network devices before connecting or disconnecting the cable.
  • Route the cable away from high-voltage power lines, variable frequency drives, and heavy electrical noise sources to prevent communication drops.
  • Ensure connectors are fully seated and secured to prevent intermittent connection faults caused by industrial vibration.
