The Intesis protocol translator enables system integrators to integrate any EtherNet/IP-based PLCs, such as Rockwell Automation’s Allen-Bradley PLCs models, with any BACnet BMS. The gateway offers bidirectional communication between EtherNet/IP PLCs and BACnet controllers. With a capacity of 1,200 data points, the gateway is a BACnet IP/MSTP server/slave on one side and an EtherNet/IP adapter on the other, featuring independent Ethernet ports. The gateway is BTL-certified for BACnet and carries the UL mark. It also is ODVA pre-certified because of its in-built Anybus CompactCom module. A MAPS configuration tool for all Intesis protocol translators offers an intuitive configuration process for system integrators.
