AXLINK100 Industrial Ethernet Gateway

Description

The AXLINK100 functions as a multi-protocol industrial Ethernet gateway, positioned at the intersection of fieldbus networks and enterprise-level control systems. It translates between legacy protocols like Profibus and Modbus RTU and modern Ethernet-based standards such as PROFINET and Ethernet/IP, allowing older and newer devices to communicate seamlessly. What sets it apart is its ability to handle parallel data streams—up to 1,000 data points simultaneously—without packet loss, making it ideal for high-throughput environments. The gateway integrates with existing control architectures via a compact DIN-rail mount, connecting to both wired and wireless networks to support flexible installation.

It features built-in cybersecurity measures, including role-based access control and data encryption, to protect against unauthorized network access. Unlike basic protocol converters, the AXLINK100 includes advanced diagnostics that track communication health, alerting engineers to bottlenecks or device disconnections before they disrupt operations.

AXLINK100

Main features and advantages:

Choosing the AXLINK100 delivers tangible operational benefits that extend beyond basic connectivity. Its rugged design, with an IP40-rated enclosure and resistance to vibration and electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensures reliable performance in harsh industrial environments—from dusty manufacturing floors to humid chemical plants. By eliminating the need for multiple protocol-specific gateways, it reduces both upfront hardware costs and cabinet space requirements, simplifying network architecture. Engineers will appreciate the reduced integration effort; the gateway’s web-based configuration tool includes pre-built device profiles for over 500 common sensors and actuators, cutting setup time by up to 60% compared to manual programming. Most importantly, theAXLINK100 is engineered for scalability, supporting firmware updates that add new protocols as automation systems evolve, ensuring long-term compatibility with future devices.

Application areas:

The AXLINK100 excels in applications where diverse systems must work in harmony. In semiconductor manufacturing, it connects precision temperature controllers and vacuum pumps—using legacy protocols—to a central MES (Manufacturing Execution System) running on Ethernet/IP, enabling real-time process adjustments. In municipal water treatment plants, it links older SCADA systems with modern IoT sensors monitoring water quality, ensuring that both historical and real-time data inform treatment processes. The gateway also shines in logistics hubs, where it integrates conveyor belt controllers (using Profibus) with warehouse management systems (using PROFINET) to optimize material flow. In each case, the AXLINK100 ensures that data moves freely across the network, proving its value in maintaining operational efficiency and critical system uptime.
