Chapter 7 Use I/O Modules
Remote I/O Modules
Remote I/O modules do not reside in the local CompactLogix 5480 controller
system. The controller connects to the I/O modules via an EtherNet/IP™
network. CompactLogix 5480 controllers support the use of a wide range of
remote I/O modules. For maximum performance, we recommend that you use
Compact 5000 I/O modules when you use remote I/O modules.
For example, CompactLogix 5480 controllers can connect to following:
• Chassis-based I/O module families, such as Compact 5000 I/O, 1756
ControlLogix® I/O, 1769 Compact I/O™, or 1746 SLC™ I/O modules
• In-cabinet I/O module families, such as 1734 POINT I/O™ or
1794 FLEX™ I/O modules
• On-Machine™ I/O module families, such as 1732E ArmorBlock® I/O
modules

IMPORTANT The following network examples are solely intended to show remote I/O
modules in various network topologies. The examples do not address
network communication rates between the CompactLogix 5480 controller
and the I/O modules.
We recommend, however, that you consider network communication rates
when you determine the best way to incorporate remote I/O modules in your
CompactLogix 5480 system.
