MGate MB3180/MB3280/MB3480 Series | 1, 2, and 4-port standard serial-to-Ethernet Modbus gateways
Brand: MOXA
Specifications
SKU: MGate MB3180
Color: High Density, Cost-Effective Gateways
The MGate MB3000 gateways can effectively connect a high density of Modbus nodes to the same network. The MB3280 can manage up to 62 serial slave nodes, and the MB3480 can manage up to 124 serial slave nodes. Each RS-232/422/485 serial port can be configured individually for Modbus RTU or Modbus ASCII operation and for different baudrates, allowing both types of networks to be integrated with Modbus TCP through one Modbus gateway.
IndraDrive compact converter: Auto-Device Routing for Easy Configuration
Moxa’s Auto-Device Routing function helps eliminate many of the problems and inconveniences encountered by engineers who need to configure large numbers of Modbus devices. A single mouse click is all that’s required to set up a slave ID routing table and configure Modbus gateways to automatically detect Modbus requests from a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system. By removing the need to manually create the slave ID routing table, the Auto-Device Routing function saves engineers significant time and cost.
Technical: Introduction
The MB3180, MB3280, and MB3480 are standard Modbus gateways that convert between Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU/ASCII protocols. Up to 16 simultaneous Modbus TCP masters are supported, with up to 31 RTU/ASCII slaves per serial port. For RTU/ASCII masters, up to 32 TCP slaves are supported. Routing through the serial ports can be controlled by IP address, TCP port number, or ID mapping. Serial-port routing by TCP port and IP address allows access for up to 4 TCP clients/masters (MB3280/MB3480 models), while routing by ID mapping allows access for up to 16 TCP clients/masters (MB3180/MB3280/MB3480).
Options: Standard Modbus Network Integration
The three standard MGate models (MB3180, MB3280, and MB3480) are designed for easy integration of Modbus TCP and RTU/ASCII networks. With these models, Modbus serial slave devices can be seamlessly incorporated into an existing Modbus TCP network, and Modbus TCP slaves can be made accessible to serial masters. The MB3180, MB3280, and MB3480 offer features that make network integration easy, customizable, and compatible with almost any Modbus network.
