Specifications summarise the standard catalogue configuration of the 1756-CN2. Always confirm details against the manufacturer’s technical documentation for your installation.
What the 1756-CN2 is used for
Communication modules are the backbone of a Logix architecture — bridging chassis to plant Ethernet, legacy ControlNet and DeviceNet networks, and remote I/O. The 1756-CN2 is commonly ordered both for new network segments and as a critical spare, because a failed comms module takes the whole downstream network with it.
When replacing, match the catalogue number and check firmware revision against your installed system. Legacy network modules (ControlNet, DeviceNet) are a core InstroDirect specialty — we source discontinued references that authorised channels no longer carry.

1756-CN2 — frequently asked questions
Is the 1756-CN2 in stock in Australia?
The 1756-CN2 is supplied on an indent basis — typically 3–5 business days to anywhere in Australia. It is not held on a local shelf, which is how we keep pricing well below authorised distributor levels. If your deadline is tight, contact us before ordering and we will confirm the current lead time.
Is this a genuine Allen-Bradley 1756-CN2?
Yes — we supply new, factory-sealed product sourced through parallel import channels, backed by a 12-month InstroDirect warranty from date of dispatch. As an independent supplier we are not an authorised Allen-Bradley distributor, and the manufacturer’s factory warranty may not apply to parallel-imported stock — our own warranty covers you instead.
Can you get related Allen-Bradley parts that are not listed?
Almost certainly. Our published catalogue is a subset of what we can source — if you need other Allen-Bradley references, accessories or a full bill of materials priced, send the part numbers to InstroDirect and we will quote the complete list, usually within one business day.
