The MB5202 is a compact 2-port industrial Modbus TCP/RTU/ASCII gateway. Both serial ports are software-selectable RS-232/RS-485/RS-422, and the Ethernet side is either one 10/100BASE-T(X) RJ-45 port or one 100BASE-FX SFP slot. The Modbus TCP server accepts 4 connections. Power is redundant 9-30 VDC terminal block plus 5 VDC DC jack, and operating temperature is -20°C to +70°C.

Specifications taken from the manufacturer datasheet.

Which version do I need?

Five ordering variants: MB5202-DB (1P1MB520200001G, male DB9), MB5202-TB (1P1MB520200002G, terminal block), MB5202-SiS (1P1MB520200003G, 2kV isolation, terminal block), MB5202-SFP-DB (1P1MB520200004G) and MB5202-SFP-TB (1P1MB520200005G). The SFP variants take an AXFD-1314-0523 (155Mbps multi-mode, 2km) or AXFD-1314-0553 (155Mbps single-mode, 30km) transceiver.

Typical applications for the MB5202

  • Bringing two Modbus RTU or ASCII serial devices onto one Modbus TCP network
  • Converting between Modbus ASCII, Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP on mixed infrastructure
  • Fibre-connected panels using the 100BASE-FX SFP variant
  • Isolated serial connections in electrically noisy plant using the 2kV SiS version
  • VirtualCOM redirection for legacy Windows or Linux serial applications
  • Field-mount wall or DIN-rail installation in a compact enclosure

MB5202 — frequently asked questions

Are both serial ports identical?

Both are software-selectable between RS-232, RS-485 (2-wire and 4-wire) and RS-422. The first port is a full-function RS-232 DB9; the second is a standard RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 port.

Can I run the Ethernet side over fibre?

Yes, on the SFP variants. The Ethernet interface is either one 10/100BASE-T(X) RJ-45 port or one 100BASE-FX SFP slot. Listed transceivers are AXFD-1314-0523 (155Mbps, multi-mode, 1310nm, 2km) and AXFD-1314-0553 (155Mbps, single-mode, 1310nm, 30km).

How many simultaneous connections does it accept?

The Modbus TCP server takes 4 connections (VirtualCOM or reverse Telnet). As a TCP client it supports a single destination or VirtualCOM, and UDP supports up to 4 IP ranges.

Is there an isolated version?

Yes. MB5202-SiS (1P1MB520200003G) provides 2 kV isolation on a terminal-block serial connector.

What is the operating temperature range?

-20°C to +70°C operating, -40°C to +85°C storage, at 5 to 95% RH non-condensing. Note this is a narrower low-temperature limit than some other gateways in the range, so check your cabinet minimum.
