EtherNet/IP and PLC-5 Communication Interface Characteristics
The 1771-AF fiber-optic converter module provides physical signal conversion between PLC-5 communication interfaces and fiber optic transmission paths. The module supports point-to-point communication configurations with data rates of 57,600 bit/s and 115,200 bit/s.
Within the PLC-5 architecture, the module operates through the Bulletin 1771 backplane interface and supports deterministic communication behavior for DH+ and Remote I/O signal transmission. The fiber conversion path extends communication distance while maintaining electrical isolation between connected segments.
The module follows Allen-Bradley PLC-5 I/O density scaling principles by occupying one chassis slot while adding fiber communication capability to the installed rack configuration.

A: The module supports point-to-point communication distances up to 6500 ft (2 km).
Field Installation Guidelines
Install the 1771-AF module into a compatible Bulletin 1771 I/O chassis slot and verify correct module seating before applying system power.
Connect communication cables according to the specified interface requirements. Maintain proper cable routing practices and separate communication wiring from high-current power conductors to reduce electrical interference.
Verify connector keying positions before installation to prevent incorrect module insertion. Follow fiber optic handling procedures, including protection of optical connectors from contamination and mechanical stress.
Maintain ESD protection during module handling and replacement activities to prevent damage to electronic components.
