The 1784-PKTX Bus Communication Card Module is one if the more versatile Network Interface Cards developed by Allen-Bradley. Functioning as a PCI (Peripheral Component Interface) that acts as a medium between personal computers or personal computer-based controllers and the DH+ (Data Highway Plus) Network. For easier programming, it also performs the same function between a SLC processor on the DH-485 network. It operates at 2 channels; a 1-Amp 3-Pin Phoenix for DH+ and Remote I/O networks, and 1C 6-Pin Phoenix for DH-485 network. The 1784-PKTX utilizes the RSLinx PKTx device driver which can be easily connected to both the DH+ and the DH-485 networks. It uses 10-feet CP12 cables that have 3-pin Phoenix Ends with switchable termination resistors for connecting with other devices. For connecting to an SLC slot on the DH-485 network, the device uses 1784-CP14 cables which have 6-pin Phoenix Connectors coming with switchable termination resistors.
The transfer rate of the device depends on the connection length, with shorter connection lengths leading to higher transfer rates. The communication rates for the device at 10,000 feet, 5000 feet, and 2500 feet are 57.6K bit/second, 115.2K bit/second, and 230.4K bit/second. When it comes to the DH-485 network and the Remote I/O, the connection length and the transfer rates are limited to 4000 feet at 1200 bits/second, 9600 bits/second, and 19200 bits/second for the former and 2500 feet and 10000 feet at 230.4K bit/second and 57.6K bit/second, respectively. The operational temperature of the 1784-PKTX ranges between 0 and 60 degrees Celsius. The operational and continuous shock limit for the device is 30G and 2G at 10 to 500 Hertz. When shipped, a field wiring arm is provided for attaching wires. The dimensions of the product are 4.5 x 12.4 x 6.3 inches (115 x 317 x 160 millimeters) weighing at 0.3 pounds. The 1784-PTCX is both CSA certified and UL listed.
