The connectivity challenges related to Allen-Bradley PLCs generally fall into two broad categories.

  1. 1. Get devices connected to your Allen-Bradly PLC

    Brown field integrations, supply chain challenges and component pricing can lead to devices waiting to be installed on your factory floor that do not have communication protocols that natively interface to Allen-Bradley PLCs. When these devices support serial communication, fieldbus communication, Modbus, Profinet, BACnet or MQTT a gateway is most practical solution to establish connectivity with you’re a-B PLCs.

  2. 2. Get other controllers connect to your Allen-Bradley PLC

    It’s also common for an automation skid or machine cell to come from a manufacturer with a PLC from different vendor. If you’re an A-B house a see the latest machine arrive with a Siemens, Schneider or Beckhoff PLC you know you have a challenge on your hands. Gateways can help you to connect these PLCS into your Allen-Bradley networks.

    Sometimes it takes a ‘middleman’ to move your data. It takes a tool to communicate with devices on dissimilar systems. That’s where a Real Time Automation (RTA) gateway comes into play. These gateways are the ideal solution for simpler and quicker connectivity between your AB PLC devices and other controllers.

Connectivity and Data Access without Programming

Connectivity it to Allen-Bradley PLCs is greatly simplified by RTA gateways. These gateways take responsibility for pushing an pulling data directly from the data tables of your Allen-Bradley PLCs. You simply input the IP address of the PLC, pick it’s type; ControlLogix, CompactLogix, MicroLogix, FlexLogix, PLC5 etc.,and then point the gateway to the tags or registers it needs to interact with. There are no scan lists or devices connections to maintain in your PLC, the gateway handles the connection and data transactions. In many cases there is no plc program alteration needed. If the tag or register location, you want to read or write exists in your PLC program the gateway will do the rest.

Gateways come ready for install into your Allen-Bradley Application

Each gateway focuses specifically on the two protocols you need to connect. This means the configuration tools are streamlined for you unique connectivity challenges. All configuration is browser-based, so there’s no PC tools to download, maintain or buy. In addition all gateways are backed with an iron clad industry-leading 5-year warranty

With over 1,152 gateways to extend the connectivity of your AB PLCs available, chances are we have the connectivty solution you’re looking for. We’ll show you all the gateways that can connect to the following Allen Bradley PLCs: Controllogix, Compactlogix, Flexlogix, Micrologix, SLC5/05 and PLC E5.

What Our Customers Are Saying

I tried for several months to find someone who knew the older Allen-Bradley RB modules…. After almost a year of searching for help, RTA fixed our problem in a few short weeks.

John M.

The 435NBA is an excellent serial to EtherNet interface to an Allen-Bradley ControlLogix PLC. Great web interface makes it easy. We will be using more of these in the future.

Jim K.

All of us here are very big fans of RTA. It’s fantastic that we can count on a great product that works and comes with the best support.

Kevin K.

I have been using RTA modules for the last four years and I have been extremely happy with their products and support. I really feel that this is one of the best gateway devices in the industrial realm.
