Ethernet gateways and device servers from
Phoenix Contact provide a simple way to migrate legacy,
serial devices and buses to modern Ethernet networks.
Variants are available with one, two, or four D-SUB 9 serial
ports and one or two RJ45 Ethernet ports.
–
Start-up and configuration are simple using an embedded
web server, and communication is kept secure with 256-bit
AES encryption and optional authentication. With a wide
operating temperature range (-40 to +70°C) and hazardous
area approvals, the device servers and gateways are
suitable for use in any industry.

Features
256-bit AES encryption for secure transfer of sensitive
data
Web-based management (WBM) configuration
Comprehensive diagnostics for fast and easy
troubleshooting
Compact DIN rail-mount form factor
COM port redirector software and Windows® operating
system COM port drivers
The most common industrial protocols are supported, with
various combinations of RAW/ASCII serial data, Modbus®
RTU, TCP/IP, Modbus TCP, PROFINET IO, and
EtherNet/IP™ technology.
Make sure you always use the latest documentation.

The serial ports are universal RS-232/422/485.
Device server
The GW EIP/ASCII… converts RAW or ASCII serial strings
from barcode scanners, weigh scales, RFID tags, etc., into
EtherNet/IP. Filtering rules may be created in the gateways
in order to mask start and stop delimiters of a bar code, for
example, to simplify integration into a programmable
controller.
ASCII to PROFINET IO
The GW PN/ASCII… convert RAW or ASCII serial strings
from barcode scanners, weigh scales, RFID tags, etc., into
PROFINET IO. Filtering rules may be created in the
gateways in order to mask start and stop delimiters of a bar
code, for example, to simplify integration into a
programmable controller.
The GW DEVICE SERVER… migrates legacy serial
devices to modern Ethernet networks. With the aid of virtual
communication ports, existing application software that only
support serial communication can be redirected to the
network card of a computer with a Windows® operating
system.
The COM Port redirector software, as well as a Windows
driver, is available for integration with a PC application free
of charge.
Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP
The GW MODBUS TCP/RTU… converts serial-based
Modbus RTU (or ASCII) to Modbus TCP. These modules
are extremely powerful and can be configured to almost any
combination of Modbus client and server, including a
shared memory configuration, allowing two Modbus
masters (clients) to communicate with each other. Device ID
aliasing is also supported to create a “virtual” Modbus ID for
Modbus slaves that do not have configurable Modbus
addresses.
EtherNet/IP™ to Modbus
The GW EIP/MODBUS… enables bidirectional
communication between EtherNet/IP and Modbus
protocols. Simple integration into major manufacturer’s fully
CIP-compliant controllers using implicit messaging, explicit
messaging, or directly read and write to a tag or file.
Supports communication with Modbus RTU/ASCII/TCP
masters and slaves.
ASCII to Modbus TCP
The GW MODBUS TCP/ASCII… converts RAW or ASCII
serial strings from barcode scanners, weigh scales, RFID
tags, etc., into Modbus registers. Filtering rules may be
created in the gateways in order to mask start and stop
delimiters of a bar code, for example, to simplify integration
into a programmable controller.
