Ethernet Converters and Modbus Gateways
The new MB-GATEWAY single port Modbus Gateway module converts Modbus TCP to Modbus RTU.
It supports up to 12 simultaneous Modbus TCP Client (master) Ethernet connections, and up to 128 RTU Server (slave) serial connections.
The Modbus Gateway is $185.00
The STRIDE Ethernet switch lineup offers models that support Fiber Optic connections.
Multimode SC and ST connector versions are available and some managed switch models support SFPs, which include single-mode and multimode
transceivers with LC connectors. SFP modules (SFP transceivers) are sold separately.
Fiber optic cables are immune to electrical and magnetic interference and voltage transients.
Fiber optic converters start at $164.00
