Moxa MGate 5216 Series

2-port serial/Modbus-to-EtherCAT gateways

Moxa's MGate 5216 Series EtherCAT industrial Ethernet gateways convert data between Modbus RTU/ASCII, proprietary serial and EtherCAT protocols. All models are protected by a rugged metal housing, are DIN-rail mountable, and offer built-in serial isolation. Modbus is one of the most widely used industrial communication protocols, and EtherCAT is commonly used in factory automation and semiconductor fields. MGate 5216 supports both Modbus RTU/ASCII client and MicroPython enabling programming in proprietary serial protocol, so that you can easily connect your Modbus devices or serial devices to EtherCAT host.
