Description

The MGate MB3170-G2, MB3270-G2, and MB3470-G2 are
new-generation Modbus gateways that convert between Modbus TCP, RTU, ASCII, and
even proprietary or extended Modbus serial protocols. These MGate gateways
transparently convert protocols, actively poll connected devices, and cache
data in memory. These capabilities make it possible for SCADA systems to
retrieve Modbus data directly from the gateway instead of waiting for all
Modbus devices to respond, greatly increasing communication performance.

Moxa has developed the MGate Series using the IEC 62443-4-1
secure development life-cycle process, ensuring secure connections and
management of these gateways within industrial networks.

In addition, the user experience is enhanced by versatile
installation options that accommodate diverse mounting and wiring requirements,
a rugged design suitable for harsh environments, and easy-to-use configuration
and troubleshooting tools for quick maintenance.

High-performance Modbus Conversion

MGate MB3170-G2/MB3270-G2/MB3470-G2 gateways operate in
either transparent (direct protocol conversion) or agent (polling and caching)
mode. Transparent mode converts protocols on a per-request basis. But for
larger Modbus systems or when lower latency is needed, agent mode greatly
enhances SCADA communication by directly accessing the gateway’s cache.

Flexible Modbus Conversion for Various Systems

Supporting dual subnet network configuration, the MGate
seamlessly integrates Modbus TCP with Modbus RTU/ASCII without disrupting
existing systems. With multiple serial port models, the MGate simultaneously
converts between Modbus serial and Modbus TCP, as well as serial-to-serial and
TCP-to-TCP. Even with legacy serial, or COM port-based software, the MGate’s
Real COM mode enables communication through Ethernet TCP with no software
adjustments. Beyond standard Modbus RTU and ASCII, the MGate also converts proprietary
and extended Modbus serial protocols, eliminating the need for custom
development or additional equipment and ensuring near-universal Modbus system
compatibility. The MGate-G2 is capable of simultaneous conversion from
proprietary serial and Modbus serial to Modbus TCP.

Intuitive Configuration and Minimal Maintenance

Downtime during maintenance can be costly. System alerts
often require contacting vendors, prolonging troubleshooting due to information
gathering and consultations. MGate-G2 gateways streamline this process by
providing comprehensive troubleshooting information for rapid issue
identification. One-click diagnostics gather all necessary data for technical
support, empowering users to efficiently resolve issues and drastically reduce
downtime.
