Overview

The 170ENT11001 is an Ethernet TCP/IP communication adaptor in the Modicon Momentum automation platform range from Schneider Electric. It extends Modicon 170 connectivity through its onboard communication interface.

Application & Technical Notes

As an ethernet tcp/ip communication adaptor, the 170ENT11001 is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where Modicon 170 equipment is installed. It bridges the controller to higher-level networks, HMIs, SCADA and peer devices, carrying configuration, process data and diagnostics.

Key published characteristics include an operating temperature range of 0 to 60°C (in a non-condensing environment). These values should be confirmed against the current manufacturer datasheet before final selection, as options and suffixes vary by configuration.

Maintenance & Diagnostics

Respect the published operating temperature window (0 to 60°C (in a non-condensing environment)); do not exceed it during commissioning or in enclosed panels without airflow. For storage and transit, keep the unit within -40 to 85°C (in a non-condensing environment). Confirm network addressing, baud/rate and topology match the rest of the system; keep firmware consistent across the cell. Always de-energise the circuit and follow lock-out/tag-out before handling; refer to the official instruction bulletin for service procedures.

Sourcing & Procurement

When sourcing the 170ENT11001, distinguish three supply tiers: (1) genuine Schneider Electric stock from an authorised distributor; (2) compatible equivalents or surplus/NOS (new-old-stock) from third parties; (3) alternative parts offering equivalent function. Genuine supply carries the full warranty and traceability; compatible or alternative items may be cheaper but should be validated for form, fit, firmware and certification before use in a live system. PLCXpert publishes this page as an independent reference and does not sell the part — verify every claim with the manufacturer or your distributor.

Match the protocol, connector and topology to the rest of the Modicon 170 network and to the peer devices already installed. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

Specifications

The 170ENT11001 is a communication adapter from Schneider Electric’s Modicon Momentum series. It facilitates high-speed data transmission with baud rates of either 10 or 100 megabits per second and supports Ethernet protocols for robust networking.

Description

NoteThe Modicon Momentum 170ENT11001 by Schneider Electric serves as an efficient communication adapter designed for various networking needs. This device operates using Ethernet Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol and supports dual baud rates of 10 and 100 megabits per second, ensuring flexible speed options for data communication. The recommended transmission medium involves shielded twisted pair cables, allowing reliable connections. Housed with an RJ45 connector, it is compatible with the 100BASE-TX Ethernet port type for seamless integration. The operational range for this adapter spans from 0 to 60°C, ideal for regular industrial conditions, while the storage temperature extends from -40 to 85°C, ensuring durability in extreme environments. This adapter adopts a master/slave and peer-to-peer (P2P) access method, facilitating efficient communication protocols across devices. The device supports a maximum cable length of 3,280 feet (1,000 meters) between networked devices, allowing significant flexibility in placement. Configuration can accommodate up to 32 devices per segment. Additionally, it is equipped with status indicators featuring 3 green and 1 yellow LED lights to denote operational status clearly. Its IP20 class of protection ensures it meets basic standard requirements, and it employs CRC-32 as the control parameter for ensuring data integrity.
