Product Introduction
The Allen-Bradley 2711P-RN1 PanelView Plus Communication Module is a specialized communication interface designed to expand the connectivity capabilities of PanelView Plus terminals. Developed by Rockwell Automation under the Allen-Bradley portfolio, this module enables integration with legacy and high-reliability control networks.
This unit supports Remote I/O (RIO) and Serial Remote I/O (SRIO) communication, allowing PanelView Plus 400 and 600 series terminals to connect seamlessly with PLC systems using established Allen-Bradley network architectures. It is particularly valuable in modernization projects where existing RIO/SRIO infrastructure is still in operation.
Compact and easy to install, the 2711P-RN1 module enhances system flexibility without requiring major changes to the control network.
