The MGate MB3660 (MB3660-8 and MB3660-16) gateways are redundant Modbus gateways that convert between the Modbus TCP and Modbus
RTU/ASCII protocols. They can be accessed by up to 256 TCP master/client devices, or connect to 128 TCP slave/server devices. Routing through
the serial ports can be controlled by IP address, TCP port number, or ID mapping. Serial-port routing by designated TCP port and IP address
allows access for up to 4 TCP clients/masters, while routing by ID mapping (slave ID table) allows access for up to 256 TCP clients/masters. The
MGate MB3660 isolation model provides 2-kV isolation protection suitable for power substation applications. The MGate MB3660 gateways are
designed to easily integrate Modbus TCP and RTU/ASCII networks. The MGate MB3660 gateways offer features that make network integration
easy, customizable, and compatible with almost any Modbus network.
For large-scale Modbus deployments, MGate MB3660 gateways can effectively connect a large number of Modbus nodes to the same network.
The MB3660 Series can physically manage up to 248 serial slave nodes for 8-port models or 496 serial slave nodes for 16-port models (the Modbus
standard only defines Modbus IDs from 1 to 247). Each RS-232/422/485 serial port can be configured individually for Modbus RTU or Modbus
ASCII operation and for different baudrates, allowing both types of networks to be integrated with Modbus TCP through one Modbus gateway.
