Anybus Communicator – Modbus TCP Client to EtherNet/IP Adapter (ABC3207-A)

The Anybus Communicator Modbus TCP Client to EtherNet/IP enables you to connect Modbus TCP devices to EtherNet/IP 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.

Connect up to 64 Modbus TCP Servers

With support for up to 64 connections, 1500 bytes per Server, 152 transactions, minimum cycle time down to 10 ms a wide range of applications can be handled with ease.

Instant data transfer

The Communicator transfers data instantly between networks, with processing time so low you don’t even need to count it, as it’s in line with network jitter. Just add the cycle times of both networks to get the total transfer time.

Diagnostics and support

The user interface shows connection status, allowing you to monitor the data going through the gateway. Monitor and control offline behavior via the Status Byte and Clear Data features. Our global support team is ready to help if needed.

Built for factory floors

The Gateway is made with industrial-grade components, verified to meet industry standards, and backed by a 5-year warranty. Its slim form factor, front-facing ports, and cable tie make DIN-rail installation easy.

Transfer 1448 bytes to and from EtherNet/IP controller (PLC)

Transfer up to 1448 bytes in each direction (2896 total) via dual 10/100 Mbit full duplex RJ45 ports with an integrated switch for daisy-chaining. EtherNet/IPTM Adapter, 1 ms RPI, Class 1/Class 3, Device Level Ring, Quick Connect class B, and EDS file.

Configure via web interface over Ethernet

With a graphical and responsive web interface, configuration is a breeze. In addition, there's no software to install and the dedicated Ethernet configuration port makes it easy to get started.

Secure and segment networks

Secure boot blocks malware, while a security switch locks configurations to prevent unauthorized changes. Network segmentation is inherent in the design, as each network is run separately, with only configured data transferred between networks.
