Arctic Modbus Gateway

Overview

Arctic Modbus Gateway effectively integrates serial Modbus devices to IP based management systems via Ethernet, GPRS and EDGE. This is achieved by protocol conversion from Modbus serial protocols to Modbus TCP protocol and vice versa.

Combining this to many other Modbus specific features Arctic Modbus Gateway is powerful and flexible building block for industrial Modbus communication.

Also mobile operator independent systems (when GPRS/EDGE is used) can be built with Viola M2M Gateway which provides virtual static IP addresses and VPN connections for Arctic devices.

Key Features

• Modbus serial-network gateway for industrial applications
• Serial protocol support for Modbus RTU and ASCII
• Network protocol support for Modbus TCP/RTU/ASCII over TCP and UDP
• Supports both serial and network masters
• One RS-232 and one RS-232/422/485 port up to 460800 bps
• Firewall and VPN for secure communication
• Mobile operator independent static IP addresses with Viola M2M Gateway
• DIN rail mounting (optional)

Application Examples

• Integrate serial Modbus slaves to IP network
• Integrate serial Modbus masters to IP network
• Integrate field bus segments together
• Substation automation
• Water purification plants
• Frequency converters
• Data loggers, RTUs, PLCs, HMIs
