The Allen-Bradley 20-COMM-ER is an Ethernet/IP adapter module tailored for integration with PowerFlex 7 series drives, ensuring robust network communication capabilities suitable for industrial environments. Supporting both peer-to-peer and master-slave configurations, it facilitates data transmission at 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps in full and half duplex modes while allowing up to 30 TCP connections. The module operates effectively with a minimum requested packet interval of 5 milliseconds and can manage up to 400 packets per second. Its power consumption is rated at 350 milliamps at 5 Volts DC, supplied by the host drive. With a compact design weighing 85 grams and measuring 19mm by 86mm by 78.5mm, the adapter performs reliably within a temperature range of -10 °C to 50 °C and complies with stringent UL, CE, EN50178, and EN61800-3 standards, though it should be kept away from corrosive environments both during use and storage.
