The CC-TCF901 (51308301-175) is a critical network security and power distribution component within the Honeywell Experion PKS Series C architecture. This 9-port Control Firewall (CF9) acts as a secure gateway between the supervisory Fault Tolerant Ethernet (FTE) network and in-cabinet C300 controllers.
By filtering broadcast traffic and isolating the control network from potential network storms, the CC-TCF901 ensures deterministic communication and protects the integrity of real-time process data.
In addition to its networking role, the module functions as a power distribution hub, routing 24V DC to connected control modules through the Series C backplane. Its rugged industrial design supports operation in demanding environments, including remote instrument enclosures, ensuring both communication reliability and power stability.

The CC-TCF901 is the standard network interface for Series C cabinets hosting a C300 controller. It is widely used in large-scale industrial facilities such as LNG terminals and chemical refineries, where it provides a secure, firewalled environment for control systems.
By isolating the control network and managing traffic flow, the module ensures that only authorized Experion PKS communications reach the controller, preventing performance degradation and protecting critical process operations.
What is the primary role of the “Firewall” in this module?
Unlike traditional IT firewalls, the CC-TCF901 performs hardware-level filtering of Ethernet traffic, allowing only authorized Experion PKS messages to reach the C300 controller. This prevents network congestion and protects against communication disruptions such as denial-of-service conditions.
Does this module require a separate power supply for the ports?
No. The CC-TCF901 operates on a standard 24 VDC supply and internally manages power distribution for its communication circuitry as well as connected modules within the Series C architecture.
