The 1718-A20 chassis is a 20-slot chassis from the Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 1718 Ex I/O series. It can host up to 20 input and output modules at a time in the I/O slots along with adapter modules and power supply modules in their own specified slots. This chassis has 2 power supply slots, which means that it can support redundant power supply systems. The 1718-A20 chassis can be used to make an extended chassis by connecting to another 1718-A20 20-slot chassis or to a 1718-A10 10-slot chassis with an extension cable. This backplane can host 20 I/O modules if they are narrow I/O modules and it can host 10 I/O modules if they are wide I/O modules. The narrow modules only need 1 slot for installation while the wide modules need 2 slots.
The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 1718-A20 20-slot chassis from the 1718 Ex I/O series should never be tampered with, altered or modified in any unauthorized way, or used if it is damaged. Using a damaged, modified, or tampered chassis can cause device damage or malfunctioning and user injury or death. When the 1718-A20 2-slot chassis is used by itself or as the base chassis in an extended chassis system, it hosts an adapter module in the slot between the power supply module and the I/O modules. When it is used as one of the extension chassis in an extended chassis, the adapter module slot must remain empty because an adapter is not needed on an extension chassis.
