MGate EIP3000 has one or two EtherNet/IP-to-DF1 ports for connecting DF1 devices and EtherNet/IP devices to A-B PLCs for remote maintenance. It uses ProCOM, which generates four extra virtual serial channels for Ethernet data pass-through and maximum network flexibility, without modifying the existing system, and it supports two IPs—one for each serial port—so EtherNet/IP devices can communicate with two DF1 devices simultaneously.
