SIXNET Industrial Connectivity Products

These gateways allow you to easily connect serial slave devices (such as a controller, PLC, RTU, etc.) to your Ethernet network. You can connect most slave (responding) devices to the serial port. The master (interrogating) device must be on the Ethernet side. The master’s commands are passed from the Ethernet port to the serial port. The slave’s responses are passed back in the other direction. These converters support many protocols and are especially ideal for Modbus and SIXNET slave devices.
