Softing Industrial introduces its usbLink CN — USB to ControlNet interface — as a replacement for the discontinued Allen-Bradley 1784-U2CN. Softing has agreed to continue to support this product and release it as usbLink CN, extending Softing’s product line of USB interfaces that connect user laptops to industrial field devices.
This interface provides a USB 2.0 port for laptop or PC connections and an RJ45 port to connect to ControlNet networks. The simple design of usbLink CN enables on-the-go configuration of ControlNet devices with an easy setup. Use RSLinx and RSNetWorx for ControlNet communications.
