Product Spotlights
As a trusted supplier in industrial automation components, Rossonix Co., Limited is proud to offer the genuine ALLEN-BRADLEY Stratix 5800 Expansion Module 1783-MMX16E. This high-performance module is engineered to seamlessly expand the fiber optic connectivity of your Allen-Bradley Stratix 5800 managed industrial Ethernet switch, providing a reliable and scalable solution for demanding network infrastructures. With over a decade of experience since 2011 and a strong presence across global markets including North America, Europe, and Asia, we understand the critical need for robust and interoperable industrial networking hardware. This expansion module delivers precisely that, enabling you to extend your control network over longer distances with superior noise immunity, ensuring stable communication for your most critical automation applications.
The 1783-MMX16E module is designed to integrate directly with the Stratix 5800 switch chassis, adding 16 additional 100/1000BASE-X Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) ports. This allows for flexible network design using a variety of SFP transceivers to match distance and fiber type requirements. Its industrial-grade construction ensures reliable operation in harsh environments typical of manufacturing floors, utilities, and process plants.
Enhanced Network Scalability: Effortlessly add up to 16 fiber optic links to your existing Stratix 5800 switch, facilitating network growth without replacing the core switch unit.
Superior Noise Immunity and Distance: Fiber optic connections eliminate electromagnetic interference (EMI) issues common with copper cabling in industrial settings and support communication over much longer distances—from hundreds of meters to several kilometers.
High-Speed, Deterministic Performance: Supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds, ensuring fast, predictable data transfer crucial for real-time control and I/O communication in EtherNet/IP networks.
Industrial Ruggedness: Built to withstand wide temperature ranges, vibration, and electrical noise, matching the robustness of the Stratix 5800 platform for consistent performance.
Seamless Integration and Management: Managed through the same familiar Stratix 5800 interface (Studio 5000 Logix Designer or built-in web interface), it simplifies configuration, monitoring, and diagnostics as part of a unified system.
Investment Protection: Extends the lifecycle and capability of your existing Stratix 5800 infrastructure, protecting your capital investment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Is the 1783-MMX16E module a standalone switch?
A: No, it is not a standalone unit. The 1783-MMX16E is an expansion module that must be installed into a compatible Allen-Bradley Stratix 5800 managed industrial Ethernet switch chassis to function. It adds ports to the existing switch.Q: What type of SFP transceivers can I use with this module?
A: The module supports standard, industry-compliant 100/1000BASE-X SFP transceivers. You can choose from various types (multimode, single-mode, different wavelengths) based on your required distance and fiber cable type. Compatibility with specific Allen-Bradley or third-party SFPs should be verified.Q: Does this module require separate configuration or software?
A: Configuration is integrated. Once installed in the Stratix 5800 chassis, the ports are managed using the same tools as the main switch, such as the built-in web interface, command-line interface (CLI), or Rockwell Automation's Studio 5000 Logix Designer application. No separate software is needed.Q: Can I mix this fiber expansion module with other Stratix 5800 expansion modules?
A: Yes, the Stratix 5800 chassis supports the installation of multiple expansion modules. You can combine the 1783-MMX16E with other modules (like copper port expansions) to create a customized switch configuration that meets your specific port type needs.Q: What is the primary advantage of using fiber optic expansion over copper?
A: The key advantages are extended distance (from 550m with multimode to 70km+ with single-mode), complete immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ground loop problems, and enhanced electrical isolation, which is critical in noisy industrial environments.Q: Is professional installation required for this module?
A: While the physical installation into the switch chassis is straightforward for qualified personnel, the network design, configuration, and integration into an existing control system typically require knowledge of industrial networking and Allen-Bradley products. Professional installation and configuration services are often recommended.Q: Are the SFP transceivers included with the module?
A: Typically, SFP transceivers are sold separately. The 1783-MMX16E module provides the SFP slots (cages). You must purchase the appropriate SFP transceivers based on your fiber optic cable plant and distance requirements.Q: How does Rossonix ensure the authenticity of this Allen-Bradley product?
A: As an established trading company with a focus on quality, Rossonix sources components through authorized channels and reputable suppliers. Our ISO9001-certified processes include verification steps to ensure we provide genuine Allen-Bradley products, giving you confidence in your purchase.
