ETH-MODBUS-O32T

Description

ETH-MODBUS-O32T module is a versatile serial server that offers multiple functionalities. In addition to its built-in switch quantity collection channels, it features an RJ45 interface, enabling it to convert MODBUS RTU communication to MODBUS TCP protocol for communication with network devices. It also facilitates bidirectional transparent transmission between RS485 serial devices and Ethernet, allowing devices with RS485 interfaces to connect to TCP/IP networks. Two independent RS485 serial ports expand the physical communication link further. The module also supports convenient parameter settings through DIP switches, including serial port baud rate, station addresses, and “six-in-one” MODBUS RTU slave configuration, making it an economical and robust product.
