Allen-Bradley 77147-163-51 RS232 Adapter Cable Kit

Allen-Bradley 77147-163-51 RS232 Adapter Cable Kit is a compact, 4-inch RS232 serial adapter designed specifically for use with the 2711-NC18 device. This kit-bearing part number 77147-163-51—comes from Allen-Bradley (Rockwell Automation)—provides a direct RS232 interface between compatible equipment and the 2711-NC18, enabling serial communication without extra hardware. Distributor listings confirm that this item is discontinued by the manufacturer, reflecting its status as a legacy accessory for older control systems. The 4-inch length keeps the cable length short for tight installations inside panels or enclosures, helping to maintain neat routing while preserving a standard RS232 connection. As a dedicated adapter cable kit, it is intended for users who require a ready-made RS232 interface solution to connect 2711-NC18 devices to RS232-enabled hosts or tools. Given its discontinued status, availability is typically found through remaining distributor inventories rather than new production runs. Users maintaining legacy Allen-Bradley hardware should verify compatibility with their specific 2711-NC18 configuration and RS232 requirements before purchase.
