  • High-Flex and Standard Cable Options for Application-Specific Installations
  • Hazardous Area Fittings and Fiber Media Extension Compatibility Included
The Allen-Bradley 1786-TPS/C ControlNet Coax Tap functions as the essential connectivity point within Bulletin 1786 series networks, providing reliable coaxial signal distribution for continuous data communication across industrial control systems. The 1786-TPS/C integrates a T-type tap configuration that efficiently branches network signals through coaxial media, facilitating robust interconnection between ControlNet devices. Spanning 1 meter in length, the 1786-TPS/C optimizes physical connectivity in compact installations while preserving signal quality throughout the network segment. The 1786-TPS/C operates dependably within a temperature spectrum of -13 to 158 degrees Fahrenheit during normal use, and tolerates non-operational temperatures from -40 to 185 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring consistent performance across varied thermal environments.

The 1786-TPS/C delivers essential network access capabilities fundamental to ControlNet segment operation, serving as a critical element of the communication infrastructure that directly influences proper system-wide data exchange. One 1786-TPS/C tap is typically required at each network access point depending on the specific ControlNet topology and device layout. The 1786-TPS/C maintains proper coaxial impedance characteristics and secure mechanical connections when installed within ControlNet segments, preserving overall network integrity and transmission reliability.

For challenging industrial environments, the 1786-TPS/C offers both high-flex and standard cable constructions, allowing selection of the appropriate 1786-TPS/C variant based on application demands and installation surroundings. Beyond standard coaxial deployment, hazardous area fittings are available for the 1786-TPS/C to accommodate the most demanding industrial locations. The 1786-TPS/C infrastructure additionally supports ControlNet fiber media extensions, enabling network segment expansion while providing immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI). The 1786-TPS/C sustains reliable operation under relative humidity levels from 5% to 95%, and withstands operational shock up to 30g, confirming its resilience for severe manufacturing and process automation applications.

The 1786-TPS/C Allen-Bradley ControlNet Coax Taps may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Description
The Allen-Bradley 1786-TPS/C ControlNet Coax Tap is specifically designed for industrial ControlNet network installations, addressing the critical need for reliable coaxial connectivity in demanding automation environments. As part of the Bulletin 1786 series, the 1786-TPS/C serves as an essential tap cable that facilitates efficient data communication through its integrated T-type tap and coaxial format. With a compact 1-meter length, the 1786-TPS/C is optimized for space-constrained installations where precise cable routing and connectivity are critical. This 1786-TPS/C tap solution is engineered to solve the challenge of establishing dependable network access points in industrial control systems, ensuring seamless signal distribution across ControlNet segments.

Performance-wise, the 1786-TPS/C is built to operate reliably within a temperature spectrum of -13 to 158 degrees Fahrenheit, making it suitable for facilities exposed to wide thermal variations during continuous operation. In non-operational scenarios, the 1786-TPS/C endures temperatures ranging from -40 to 185 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring component integrity during storage and transportation. The 1786-TPS/C also tolerates relative humidity conditions from 5% to 95%, maintaining communication reliability across diverse climatic environments. Built to resist shock with a maximum rating of 30g during operation, the 1786-TPS/C asserts its durability for rigorous applications such as heavy manufacturing floors, material handling systems, and other vibration-intensive industrial settings where standard connectivity hardware would be prone to failure.

The 1786-TPS/C product offering includes both high-flex and standard cable options, allowing users to select the appropriate 1786-TPS/C variant based on specific application requirements and the environmental conditions where the system is being installed. For the most demanding installations, hazardous area fittings are available for the 1786-TPS/C, enabling safe deployment in potentially explosive atmospheres and extreme industrial zones. Additionally, ControlNet fiber media compatibility allows the 1786-TPS/C network infrastructure to be extended beyond traditional coaxial limitations, providing extra installation flexibility and immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI). This makes the 1786-TPS/C ideal for installations near high-power electrical equipment or in environments where standard coaxial signals would otherwise be susceptible to noise and communication disruption.
