Is the Rockwell 2080-LC30-48QWB discontinued?

The 2080-LC30-48QWB has been cancelled (since December 2023): no longer sold as a current product, though spares may remain available for a period. Its successor is the Micro820 2080-LC20 or Micro850 2080-L50E.

What Cancellation means for you

You can no longer order it as a normal product, and nothing new should be designed around it. If machines depend on it, you want spare stock you can rely on and a migration plan. Both start with knowing how many you run and whether each has a backup.

Before replacing a PLC processor

We would secure a current, tested PLC program backup, record the programming software and version, and map the I/O, networks and intelligent modules connected to the controller.

CPU migrations can alter addressing, communications, memory behaviour or firmware requirements, so a newer processor in the same general family is not automatically a drop-in replacement. Proving that the program can actually be restored while the existing controller still runs is one of the most valuable checks a maintenance team can make.

Common questions about the 2080-LC30-48QWB

Is the Rockwell 2080-LC30-48QWB discontinued?

The 2080-LC30-48QWB has been cancelled (since December 2023): no longer sold as a current product, though spares may remain available for a period. Its successor is the Micro820 2080-LC20 or Micro850 2080-L50E.

What replaced the 2080-LC30-48QWB?

Rockwell lists the Micro820 2080-LC20 or Micro850 2080-L50E as the successor. Check compatibility with your machine before planning the change.

Can I still buy a 2080-LC30-48QWB?

Not as a normal new product. Remaining distributor stock or designated spares may still be available. Buy any you need now.

How do I back up a 2080-LC30-48QWB?

It is programmed with Connected Components Workbench. The exact software version and cable depend on the unit's firmware. ECS records both for every unit it captures, alongside a verified backup.

With a backup, a failed unit is hours. Without one, it is days.

A Capture audit finds every 2080-LC30-48QWB on your site, takes a backup of each one it can reach, and records the software version and cable needed to restore it. When a discontinued unit fails and a replacement turns up, the program is ready to load.

  • Every device located, photographed and lifecycle-checked
  • Backups taken on the day, with software version and cable recorded
  • Findings report, plus a populated Command Centre
  • No production downtime
