ModBUS / Ethernet Gateways
R-KEY-LT and Z-KEY extend networks and allow process data to pass between different IT and industrial communication architecture layers. They guarantee the transmission of signals between ModBUS TCP-IP/ ModBUS RTU in different modes, effectively increasing the number of nodes connected and the distances reached in the network. The devices can also extend the serial network by operating as a Remote virtual COM transparent to the serial communication protocol.
