Connections to the Ethernet
Network
Allen-Bradley PLCs
The SLC 5/05 Ethernet connector conforms to ISO/IEC 8802-3 STD
802.3 and utilizes 10Base-T media. Connections are made directly
from the SLC 5/05 to an Ethernet hub. The network setup is simple
and cost effective. Typical network topology is pictured below.

The SLC 5/05 processor contains a 10Base-T, RJ45
IMPORTANT
Ethernet connector which connects to standard
Ethernet hubs via 8-wire twisted-pair straight-through
cable. To access other Ethernet meduims, use
10Base-T media converters or Ethernet hubs that can
be connected together via fiber, thin-wire, or
thick-wire coaxial cables, or any other physical media
commercially available with Ethernet hubs.
