Enter a catalog number in the search field for the most up-to-date lifecycle status on products and software you are interested in.

  • You must enter at least 3 digits of the catalog number and an optional wildcard string to retrieve data.
  • You can enter a partial catalog number to get lifecycle data on a family of products (e.g., enter "1771" to retrieve status information on all 1771 I/O products).

Lifecycle Status Definitions

We know it’s critical for you to maximize your investment in your automation system, and we support that with a track record of long product lifecycles relative to our competition. But the Industrial Internet of Things and Smart Manufacturing are changing the way you do business and driving you to evolve. We help you meet this demand to innovate, including clearly identifying a product's current lifecycle stage, making it easier for you to proactively plan and manage the transition to more modern technologies.
