Product Detailed Description

The Allen-Bradley 1783-SFP100T is a Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver module designed for industrial Ethernet networking applications. It provides reliable 100 Mbps connectivity over copper cabling, enabling seamless integration into Rockwell Automation’s Stratix family of managed and unmanaged Ethernet switches. This module is part of the Bulletin 1783 Stratix SFP series, which supports flexible media conversion for extending network reach in harsh environments. Specifically, the 1783-SFP100T is a copper-based SFP that uses a twisted-pair RJ-45 connector to deliver 10/100Base-TX Ethernet speeds, supporting auto-negotiation for optimal performance. It is engineered for industrial-grade durability, with an extended temperature range suitable for demanding factory floor or outdoor deployments. The module is hot-swappable, allowing easy installation without powering down the network, and is fully compatible with Cisco Catalyst architecture used in Stratix switches.

Product Parameters (Specifications)

The following table outlines the key technical specifications for the 1783-SFP100T, based on Rockwell Automation documentation and compatible implementations:

These parameters ensure reliable operation in vibration-prone and EMI-heavy industrial settings.

Product Advantages

• Extended Temperature Resilience: Operates in extreme conditions (-40°C to +85°C), ideal for harsh industrial environments where standard commercial SFPs would fail, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
• Cost-Effective Copper Connectivity: Provides high-speed 100 Mbps links over affordable, widely available copper cabling up to 100m, eliminating the need for more expensive fiber in short-to-medium distance applications.
• Seamless Integration: Hot-swappable design and full compatibility with Stratix switches (leveraging Cisco architecture) allow plug-and-play deployment, minimizing installation time and network disruptions.
• Robust Performance: Supports auto-negotiation and error-free transmission in noisy environments, with low power draw (<1.5 W) for energy-efficient operations.
• Scalability and Flexibility: Enables easy network expansion in modular Stratix systems, supporting convergence of IT/OT (Information Technology/Operational Technology) infrastructures for future-proofing.
• High Reliability: Backed by Rockwell Automation’s industrial-grade build, offering superior MTBF and compliance with global standards, which lowers total cost of ownership compared to third-party alternatives.

Precautions and Notes

• Installation Safety: The module is hot-swappable, but always verify switch power is stable and follow ESD (electrostatic discharge) precautions—use grounded wrist straps and anti-static mats to avoid damage during handling.
• Environmental Limits: Do not exceed the -40°C to +85°C operating range; exposure to condensation or temperatures outside this may cause failure. Ensure proper ventilation in enclosed switch cabinets to prevent overheating.
• Cable Compatibility: Use only Category 5e or higher shielded/ unshielded twisted-pair (STP/UTP) copper cables rated for industrial use to minimize EMI interference; improper cabling can lead to signal degradation or link failures.
• Firmware Requirements: Requires Stratix 5400/5410 firmware version 3.001 or later for full functionality; update firmware before installation to avoid compatibility issues.
• Maintenance: Avoid direct exposure to dust or contaminants; clean RJ-45 connectors with isopropyl alcohol if needed, but power off the switch first. Not intended for hazardous locations without additional certification.
• Warranty and Support: Handle with care to maintain warranty—damage from improper insertion or over-torquing can void coverage. Consult Rockwell Automation’s Knowledgebase for troubleshooting.

Product Applications

The 1783-SFP100T is optimized for industrial automation and control systems where reliable, short-range copper Ethernet connectivity is essential. Key applications include:

• Factory Floor Networking: Connecting PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers), HMIs (Human-Machine Interfaces), and sensors in manufacturing lines, enabling real-time data exchange over existing copper infrastructure.
• Process Automation: Integrating into water/wastewater treatment plants or chemical processing facilities for linking drives, valves, and monitoring devices in control rooms.
• Material Handling: Deployed in conveyor systems, warehousing, and logistics for extending Ethernet reach to remote I/O modules without fiber conversion.
• Energy and Utilities: Used in substations or renewable energy sites for connecting RTUs (Remote Terminal Units) and SCADA systems in temperature-variable outdoor enclosures.
• IT/OT Convergence: Facilitates hybrid networks in smart factories, bridging legacy copper setups with modern Stratix switches for CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) security and diagnostics.
• Transportation: Applied in rail signaling or traffic control systems requiring rugged, EMI-resistant links up to 100m.

This module excels in scenarios demanding quick setup and high uptime, supporting Rockwell’s Connected Enterprise architecture for enhanced diagnostics and predictive maintenance.
