HMS Industrial Networks announces the launch of its new EtherNet/IP to Profibus X-gateway. The new X-gateway is a configurable stand-alone gateway that allows plant-floor devices on the Profibus network to communicate with the devices on the EtherNet/IP network and vice versa. Typical applications are installations with mixed usage of Siemens and Rockwell PLCs; such as automobile manufacturing plants where Profibus based segments shall be integrated into industrial Ethernet based control applications with EtherNet/IP real time protocol.
The new X-gateway is a compact device for standard DIN rail mounting and 24 Volt industrial power supply. It functions as an adapter (slave) on the EtherNet/IP network and as a master on the Profibus side.
