Anybus Communicator – Modbus TCP Client to EtherCAT SubDevice
The Anybus Communicator Modbus TCP Client to EtherCAT enables you to connect Modbus TCP devices to EtherCAT control systems. Anybus Communicators ensure reliable, secure, and high-speed data transfer between different industrial networks. Thanks to our intuitive web-based user interface, they're also incredibly easy to use.
Features and Benefits
High performance - Powered by the award-winning NP40 network processor, it enables instant transfer of up to 1500 bytes (network dependent) between networks, totaling 3000 bytes.
Instant data transfer - Instant data transfer lets you take advantage of high-speed industrial networks.
Endian conversion - The Communicator provides hardware-accelerated endian conversion (byte swap), saving processing time on the PLC.
Intuitive user interface - Use the intuitive web-based user interface to easily configure the Communicator via the drag-and-drop functionality or to analyze live data and generate support packages.
Cybersecurity - Despite advanced security, human error often causes breaches. Our Communicator’s physical security switch can lock configurations and block web interface access, enhancing security.
Optimized hardware design - The Communicator has forward-facing ports and is designed for IP20 and DIN-rail mounting, enabling you to install it with ease, close to connected devices, thereby reducing wiring requirements.
Diagnostics - The user interface displays real-time connection status and I/O data mapping for easy troubleshooting. Easily generate a support file containing all the necessary information.
5-year manufacturer's warranty - Thanks to carefully selected industrial components the Communicator operates reliably in harsh environments, ensuring uptime and longevity. Our confidence in quality is reflected in a 5-year warranty.
Life cycle management - HMS maintains every part of the Communicator, including network updates, throughout the product’s lifecycle.
