The 1734-EXT1 I/O point-bus extension cable is an accessory used with the in-cabinet modular I/O Platform that belongs to the 1734 Point I/O series. This accessory is designed, manufactured, and distributed by Allen-Bradley, and it works as a cable to connect terminal bases and other accessories. The 1734 family of modular I/O products is ideal for applications that require flexibility and a low ownership cost. The 1734-EXT1 I/O point-bus extension cable has a standard length of 1 meter. In general, bus cables are used to transport digital signal transmissions from sensors to their corresponding display units. In order to deliver a good signal, a high transmission and data flow device is necessary. Standard cables cannot withstand this data flow, thus making bus cables necessary. The 1734-EXT1 I/O point-bus extension cable is an utterly important accessory, given the fact that once it is placed on all the locations where it is required, it will be in charge of the high-speed data and signal transmission between sensors, adapters, encoders and the main point I/O System. In addition, this extension cable helps the In-Cabinet Modular I/O Platform be properly wired to any other fundamental parts of the process, allowing multiple types of connection at the same time.

The 1734-EXT1 I/O point-bus extension cable is a fundamental part, necessary for the main system device to facilitate industrial processes, such as plant management, configuration, data collection and control, regular sending of data, internet connection, manufacturing integration, and time-critical applications with no schedule, among others.
