Spectrum Controls: Universal Gateway

March 30, 2020

The Ethernet and Serial swiss army knife of industrial gateways that includes: Modbus, PPI, DirectNET, CCM, HostLink, EtherNet/IP, S7comm & DF1 protocols. The all-in-one gateway that bridges communication gaps between devices, Ethernet and/or serial.

Single Solution – Twelve protocols, five ports, one box.
Ethernet – Supports multiple protocols simultaneously, not just one-to-one. 
More Serial Ports – Four isolated ports, each configurable to any available protocol. 
Communications – Transfer data to and from any port, in any combination.
Insanely Cost Competitive – The functionality of multiple gateways for the price of one.
Browser-based Configuration – No programming software to buy or install.
Super Easy to Set Up – No I/O tree changes required. No Ladder Logic to program.

The more protocols and ports you use, the more money you save.

Use Case Savings Examples:

  •  –   The Universal Industrial Gateway is cost competitive against any one-to-one protocol gateway and it provides more standard ports so you can connect more devices.
  •  –   The Universal Industrial Gateway supports 9 protocols (the equivalent of 10 one-to-one protocol gateway devices). The more protocols you need bridged, the more money you save. 
  •  –   The Universal Industrial Gateway features 2 or 4 serial ports that operate simultaneously. This allows you to connect multiple devices with a single gateway. Additionally, each port can be configured with a different protocol.
  •  –   The Universal Industrial Gateway features a single Ethernet port that supports multiple protocols, simultaneously. This allows you to connect multiple devices with a single gateway.
  •  –   The Universal Industrial Gateway supports data transfers to and from any port, in any combination (Ethernet to Ethernet, Ethernet to Serial, Serial to Serial).

Whether you are modernizing networks, connecting legacy devices or integrating new machines, owning the Universal Industrial Gateway provides a cost-effective, flexible solution for every system integrator.

Currently supported Industrial Protocols:

1. EtherNet/IP
2. EtherNet/IP-PCCC
3. Modbus TCP
4. Modbus RTU
5. Modbus ASCII
6. DF1-PCCC
7. DF1-CIP
8. PPI
9. S7comm (ISOTCP)
10. DirectNET
11. CCM
12. HostLink
