32-Point Combination Input/Output PanelConnect Module with four 12-pin Mini-Plus Connectors
These modules are used when input and output devices are in the vicinity of each other (i.e., conveyor systems).
Each 12-pin Mini-Plus connector connects to four (4) input and four (4) output devices. The distribution box used in this application is split between four (4) inputs and four (4) outputs. Each 12-pin Mini-Plus connector mates with a twelve-conductor patchcord that connects to the distribution box.
These modules are normally used with Connection systems with LEDs on the distribution box, for easier identification on the machine. The 32-Point combination modules are available only for DC inputs and outputs.
Each PanelConnect module has an LED to indicate when the module is powered. On the internal panel side, the PanelConnect mates with two 20-pin cables, one for PLC input modules and one for PLC output modules. These cables are available for the most popular Allen-Bradley Input and Output I/O modules. Modules are available in Type 4 and 4X versions.

Digital Pre-Wired Cables
Bulletin 1492 pre-wired cables are designed to minimize control wiring in a panel. Pre-wired cables, when used with a PanelConnect Module replaces the point-to-point wiring between Allen-Bradley programmable controller I/O modules and individual terminal blocks. The pre-wired cables have a removable terminal block or wiring arm at the I/O end of the cable and a cable connector on the other end to connect to the PanelConnect Module. All of the pre-wired cables use #22 AWG wire and are 100% tested for continuity to make a perfect connection every time. The digital pre-wired cables are offered in four standard lengths of 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, and 5.0 m to fit a variety of applications. Other cable lengths are also available as build-to-order products. Pre-wired cables are available for many of the 1746 SLC I/O, 1756 ControlLogix, 1769 Compact for CompactLogix and MicroLogix 1500, and 1771 (PLC-5) Output Modules.

Ready-to-Wire Digital Cables
PanelConnect-ready cables have a cable connector that attaches to the PanelConnect Module, pre-wired to one end, and have free connectors ready to wire to other suppliers’ I/O modules or other components on the other end. PanelConnect ready cables use #22 AWG wire and have individual color-coded conductors for quick wire-to-terminal coordination. The digital PanelConnect-ready cables are offered in standard lengths of 1.0, 2.5, and 5.0 m to fit a variety of applications. Other cable lengths are also available as build-to-order products.
