MW5501C Series MW5502C Series
Review the shared capabilities of the family, then select a model to see the characteristics that distinguish that ordering option.
- Diverse Hardware, Integrated Wireless, Serial and Ethernet MW5501C/02C Industrial Wireless Modbus Gateway will provide you a flexible platform to convert bi-directionally Modbus RTU/ASCII/ TCP through wired and wireless Ethernet Networks. It supports IEEE802.11 b/g/n standards over 2.4GHz for Wireless connectivity, wired Ethernet through one RJ45 port and supports the four most commonly used communication standards in Serial: RS-232/485 and 422 on one or two ports. The ease-of-use configuration utility provided with Modbus Gateway can quickly select the hardware interface , and easily switch to the existing communication infrastructure. Switching between Modbus Protocols Modbus Gateway supports the standard Modbus protocol and is capable of converting any Modbus protocols between Modbus TCP , Modbus RTU, and Modbus ASCII for all supported hardware interfaces. Modbus ID Routing Modbus Gateway supports various types of hardware communication interfaces, Modbus protocol conversion, and Modbus ID routing. Therefore the Modbus Gateway can integrate your existing and complex Modbus hardware configuration into a simple network that can be easily managed.
- Designed for 802.11 b/g/n networks, FCC (USA), ETSI (Europe) certified
- 1 x 100BaseT(X) RJ45 port, and 1 or 2 sw-selectable RS-232/485/422 ports, either D-Sub 9 or Terminal Block connector
- Bi-Directional Modbus TCP/RTU/ASCII conversion from Serial to Ethernet or Wireless and Vice-versa
- Advanced features include Virtual ID remapping, VirtualCOM mode, exception handling and many others
- Supports WiFi-Direct for Simple Peer Pairing
- Web server / Utility configuration
