Allen-Bradley 1734-AENTRK EtherNet IP Adapter

Allen-Bradley 1734-AENTRK EtherNet/IP Adapter is a 2-port POINT I/O I/O adapter module that bridges a POINT I/O backplane to an EtherNet/IP network. The conformally coated variant (RK) delivers enhanced moisture and chemical resistance for harsh industrial environments. This dual-port adapter provides two RJ45 Ethernet ports that support network pass-through and daisy-chaining, enabling flexible topology in compact cabinets and distributed layouts. As part of the Series C POINT I/O family, it supports standard EtherNet/IP communication for POINT I/O modules, including I/O data exchange and explicit messaging to connected modules. The 1734-AENTRK is designed for use with the POINT I/O backplane and can be integrated with Rockwell Automation controllers that support EtherNet/IP, with configuration performed via Studio 5000 or RSLogix 5000. Typical applications include remote I/O for sensors and actuators in distributed automation architectures, where ruggedized, DIN-rail mounted connectivity is advantageous. Install by mounting the adapter on a DIN rail above the POINT I/O backplane, connecting the two RJ45 ports to the network and the backplane to the I/O modules, and provisioning the device within the project. This adapter is specifically documented for Series C installations alongside the 1734-AENTR/AENTRK family and is designed to work within Rockwell Automation’s POINT I/O ecosystem to extend EtherNet/IP connectivity to your I/O modules.
