Basic Function
Bidirectional Transparent Data Transmission Between 4-CH RS485 And Ethernet
Multiple Power Supply Options
Supports PoE network port power supply*, complies with IEEE 802.3af PoE standard
Supports screw terminal for power supply, wide voltage input range DC 6–45V
* This function is available on PoE version only
Industrial-Oriented Serial Server
Industrial rail-mount design, supports wall-mount and rail-mount, compact size, easy to install, cost-effective
Modbus Gateway Support

MQTT/JSON To Modbus
More flexible conversion between different protocols
When used as an MQTT gateway, devices can upload serial data to the MQTT server via MQTT protocol through transparent transmission. Supported servers include Baidu Cloud MQTT, Alibaba Cloud MQTT, China Mobile OneNet, etc. Received Modbus RTU or non-standard serial data can be parsed in JSON format and packaged into an MQTT data packet for uploading.
When used as a JSON data acquisition gateway, devices can be connected to data acquisition instruments via RS485 connection, then automatically acquire data, convert data into JSON format, and finally send to the server. The acquired data supports Modbus RTU meter 645 version 97, meter 645 version 07, as well as various non-standard RS485 protocols. The uploaded data format can be configured via the host, and the JSON upload protocol can be MQTT protocol, HTTP POST protocol, HTTP GET protocol, etc.
Multi Host Polling Support
Different network devices will be identified and respond separately,
no more cross-talk problem when communicating with multiple network devices
Custom Heartbeat / Registration Packet
Easy for cloud communication and device identification
NTP Protocol Support
Acquire network time information for serial output or data uploading
Multiple Configuration Methods
