The Allen-Bradley 1732E-16CFGM12QCR Ethernet module is a 2-port self-configurable digital I/O solution designed with 16 inputs and outputs that feature sinking 24 Volts DC input types and sourcing 24 Volts DC output types. This Ethernet module is suitable for industrial environments that may possibly be located in North America or Europe, where network-based distributed control architectures are common. With an enclosure type rated for IP65, IP66, IP67, and IP69K protection, along with a Type 4X rating intended for indoor use, the 1732E-16CFGM12QCR may potentially be applicable to operations requiring robust environmental resistance and reliable data connectivity. It is likely to be compatible with advanced automation systems where Ethernet-enabled field devices are expected to enhance network efficiency and modular scalability.
