FAQ
FAQ
Q1: What is the Allen-Bradley 1786-TCAP?
A: It is a ControlNet tap dummy load connector used to terminate unused coaxial taps in a ControlNet network.
Q2: What is the main function of the 1786-TCAP?
A: It maintains proper termination of an unused tap and allows a future network node to be added without replacing the existing tap arrangement.
Q3: Is the 1786-TCAP a standard 75-ohm network terminator?
A: It is a tap dummy load, not the same component as the 1786-XT trunk-line terminator. These two parts serve different purposes in a ControlNet network.
Q4: Which cable system is it compatible with?
A: It is designed for the ControlNet coaxial media system using 75-ohm RG-6 quad-shield cable and compatible taps.
Q5: Does it require an external power supply?
A: No. It is a passive network termination accessory and does not require external power.
Q6: Can it be used to terminate the main ControlNet trunk cable?
A: No. It is intended for unused tap connections. The main trunk cable requires the appropriate 1786-XT terminator.
Q7: What are the dimensions and weight?
A: The approximate dimensions are 30 × 20 × 20 mm, with an estimated weight of 0.09 kg per piece. These are indicative figures, not confirmed manufacturer specifications.
Q8: What is the country of origin and lifecycle status?
A: Rockwell Automation lists the United States as the country of origin and Active Mature as the lifecycle status. The actual manufacturing origin should be checked against the product label.
