Description

The MGate MB3170I-S-SC-T is a 1-port advanced Modbus gateway that converts between Modbus TCP and Modbus RTU/ASCII. This variant adds a 100BaseFX single-mode fibre Ethernet port with an SC connector, 2 kV serial magnetic isolation and a -40 to 75°C wide operating temperature range, making it suited to long-distance, electrically noisy industrial sites.

A single software-selectable RS-232/422/485 serial port lets serial Modbus devices be reached by up to 32 TCP masters, or lets the gateway poll up to 32 TCP slaves. Auto-Device Routing, Ethernet cascading and a built-in Modbus traffic monitor simplify configuration and troubleshooting, while the DIN-rail mountable IP30 housing runs from a 12 to 48 VDC supply.

Features

- Converts between Modbus TCP, ASCII and RTU, supporting serial-to-Ethernet and serial master to serial slave
- Serial and Ethernet masters can access serial Modbus devices simultaneously
- Auto-Device Routing for easy configuration

- Accessible by up to 32 TCP masters or connects to up to 32 TCP slaves
- Supports up to 31 or 62 serial slave devices
- Ethernet cascading for easy wiring
- Serial redirector function
- Embedded Modbus traffic monitor
- Priority control gives urgent commands an immediate response
- Built-in 2 kV serial isolation
- Single-mode fibre port for long-distance, noise-immune links
- Rugged, DIN-rail mountable design

FAQs

Q: What does the SC fibre port on the MGate MB3170I-S-SC-T support?
A: It provides a 100BaseFX single-mode (G.652) Ethernet connection with an SC connector at 1310 nm, with a typical distance of 40 km and a 29 dB link budget.

Q: Does this gateway still have a copper Ethernet port?
A: Yes. It has two Ethernet ports sharing one IP address, a fibre port and a 10/100 Mbps RJ45 port, which allows Ethernet cascading for simpler wiring.

Q: What serial interfaces are supported?
A: The single serial port is software selectable between RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485. RS-232 uses a DB9 male connector, while RS-422/485 uses a terminal block.

Q: How many Modbus devices can it connect?
A: As a slave gateway it can be accessed by up to 32 TCP masters. As a master it can connect to up to 32 TCP slaves, and it supports up to 31 or 62 serial slave devices.

Q: Is it suitable for harsh or outdoor-cabinet environments?
A: It operates from -40 to 75°C and has 2 kV serial isolation and 15 kV ESD protection. It carries Class 1 Division 2, ATEX, IECEx and DNV approvals. The housing is IP30, so it needs installation in a suitable enclosure.

Q: What power supply does it need?
A: It runs from 12 to 48 VDC via a terminal block and draws 555 mA at 12 VDC.
