Prosoft MVI56E-MNET Communication Module

Product Description

Prosoft MVI56E-MNET is an enhanced Modbus TCP/IP Client/Server communication module designed for Rockwell ControlLogix chassis. It mounts directly on the ControlLogix backplane, enabling seamless data exchange between ControlLogix PAC and a wide range of Modbus TCP/IP compatible devices, such as instruments, drives, and third-party PLCs. It supports both Modbus TCP Client and Server modes. The built-in Ethernet port allows local and remote configuration and online diagnostics. It is backward compatible with legacy MVI56-MNET and acts as a protocol gateway for heterogeneous industrial networksProSoft Te….
