Moxa MGate 5101-PBM-MN gateway provides a communication portal between PROFIBUS devices (e.g. PROFIBUS drives or instruments) and Modbus TCP hosts. All models are housed IP30 metal casing, DIN-rail mountable. Optional built-in optical isolation is available. The PROFIBUS and Ethernet status LED indicators allows for easy troubleshooting. Moxa MGate 5101 is certified for hazardous locations and suitable for deployment in applications such as oil/gas, power, process automation and factory automation.

Windows Utility for Easy Configuration and Traffic Monitoring
Moxa's free MGate Manager utility provides a user-friendly interface to make configuration and operation simple. The AutoScan function automatically detects all connected PROFIBUS slave devices and their available I/O modules for fast gateway configuration. After which, a data mapping table is created to assist in the configuration of Modbus TCP master (e.g., SCADA, PLC) settings. Users can configure import/export maintenance functions, and use embedded monitoring tools to maintain Modbus communication packets logs for troubleshooting.

Comprehensive Maintenance Functions
Moxa MGate 5101-PBM-MN includes a Web console and Telnet console for remote maintenance. Both supports encryption commutation functions such as HTTPS and SSH to prevent unauthorized access. The log functions are provided in firmware such as connection event of Modbus or PROFIBUS for maintenance. Users can monitor each I/O data and review the log through the web console remotely. A relay output alarm is provided for the power input status. 

Redundant Power Inputs
Moxa MGate 5101-PBM-MN incorporates dual power inputs for greater reliability. The power inputs allow simultaneous connection to 2 live DC power sources to provide uninterrupted operation even if one power source fails. The higher level of reliability makes these advanced PROFIBUS-master-to-Modbus-TCP gateways ideal for demanding industrial applications.
