MGate 5111 Series
Moxa MGate 5111 Series Introduction
The Moxa MGate 5111 series is a highly adaptable industrial
gateway solution designed to simplify communication across diverse industrial
protocols. These protocol gateways facilitate seamless integration by
converting between Modbus, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and PROFIBUS, which makes
them ideal for bridging legacy systems with modern industrial networks. By
enabling smooth protocol translation, the Moxa MGate 5111 Ethernet gateway devices enhance industrial edge connectivity to ensure efficient data flow between
field devices, controllers, and central management systems. These gateways are
especially beneficial in complex industrial environments where interoperability
between equipment from different eras or manufacturers is essential. Known for
their reliability, Moxa gateways, particularly the MGate 5111 series, offer a
future-ready solution that strengthens system integration and optimizes
industrial performance.
Equipped with advanced features, the Moxa MGate 5111 series
supports protocol conversion from Modbus RTU/ASCII/TCP, EtherNet/IP, or
PROFINET to PROFIBUS, which allows for flexible integration with a wide range
of existing industrial infrastructures. The MGate 5111 products support
PROFIBUS DP V0 slave functionality and can operate as both Modbus master/client
and slave/server, and offer extensive communication flexibility. Additionally,
these Moxa MGate 5111 gateways can function as an EtherNet/IP adapter and a
PROFINET IO device and enable reliable data exchange across different
industrial network layers. A built-in microSD card slot allows for easy
configuration backup, system recovery to enhance operational continuity, and
simplifies maintenance.
To further bolster system resilience, the MGate 5111 is
designed with redundant dual DC power inputs and a relay output for fault
notifications. Its support for the PROFIBUS DP protocol ensures efficient
communication with field devices in sectors such as factory automation and oil
and gas. The unit operates within a 12 to 48 VDC input voltage range and
features a durable metal housing with an IP30 rating, ensuring reliable
operation in demanding environments. The T models in the Moxa MGate 5111 series
are built to withstand extreme temperatures ranging from -40 to 75°C and
deliver consistent performance in harsh industrial settings.
