Features and benefits
Transfer up to 1500 bytes to and from the controller (PLC)
Transfer up to 1500 bytes (network dependent) in each direction (3000 bytes total) via dual 10/100 Mbit full duplex RJ45 ports with an integrated switch for daisy-chaining.
Transfer 1500 bytes to and from Modbus RTU controller (PLC)
Transfer up to 1500 bytes in each direction (3000 bytes total) via RS232/RS485 interfaces with baud rates up to 128,000 bit/s. Modbus RTU Server (slave) supporting Modbus diagnostics and device identification.
Selectable Industrial Ethernet network
Cover multiple protocols with a single Communicator. Supports EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, Modbus TCP, and PROFINET. Download firmware for your desired protocols from the product webpage and upload it via the Communicator's interface.
EX certified
Certified for ATEX Zone 2 and UL Hazardous Location Class 1 Division 2 for use in areas where explosive gas may exist.
Instant data transfer
The Communicator transfers data instantly between networks, with processing time so low you don’t even need to count it, as it’s in line with network jitter. Just add the cycle times of both networks to get the total transfer time.
Configure via web interface over Ethernet
With a graphical and responsive web interface, configuration is a breeze. In addition, there's no software to install and the dedicated Ethernet configuration port makes it easy to get started.
Diagnostics and support
The user interface shows connection status, allowing you to monitor the data going through the gateway. Monitor and control offline behavior via the Status Byte and Clear Data features. Our global support team is ready to help if needed.
Drop-in replacement
Already using an X-gateway? Don’t worry, with legacy mode you can continue using the same configuration in your controller/PLC.
Secure and segment networks
Secure boot blocks malware, while a security switch locks configurations to prevent unauthorized changes. Network segmentation is inherent in the design, as each network is run separately, with only configured data transferred between networks.
Built for factory floors
The Gateway is made with industrial-grade components, verified to meet industry standards, and backed by a 5-year warranty. Its slim form factor, front-facing ports, and cable tie make DIN-rail installation easy.
