Description
The CDL-MCLE-FWM functions as a multi-protocol industrial gateway, engineered to translate between fieldbus protocols (such as Modbus RTU, Profibus DP) and industrial Ethernet standards (including Ethernet/IP, PROFINET). It acts as a bridge between legacy devices—like analog sensors or motor drives using serial communication—and modern control systems, eliminating the need for costly hardware replacements when upgrading to digital architectures. What sets it apart is its advanced signal conditioning capabilities: it filters electrical noise, amplifies weak signals, and compensates for voltage drops in long cable runs (up to 1000 meters), ensuring data integrity even in environments with heavy machinery or high-voltage equipment.
CDL-MCLE-FWM
The gateway features a rugged metal housing with an IP40 rating, making it suitable for panel mounting in dusty industrial cabinets, while its wide operating temperature range ensures performance in extreme heat or cold. The CDL-MCLE-FWM includes built-in cybersecurity features, such as data encryption (AES-256) and access control lists, protecting against unauthorized access to critical process data. It also supports remote configuration and diagnostics via a web-based interface, allowing engineers to monitor communication status and troubleshoot issues without on-site visits.

CDL-MCLE-FWM
Main features and advantages:
Choosing the CDL-MCLE-FWM delivers tangible benefits for industrial communication systems. Its multi-protocol support reduces integration costs by up to 40% compared to replacing legacy devices with protocol-compatible alternatives, making it ideal for phased automation upgrades. The signal conditioning capabilities minimize data errors in noisy environments—such as near welding stations or high-power motors—reducing false alarms and improving control system accuracy. Engineers will appreciate the compact design, which saves valuable panel space, and the hot-swappable configuration, allowing for maintenance without disrupting the entire network. The built-in cybersecurity features help comply with industry standards (such as IEC 62443), protecting against data breaches that could lead to production downtime or safety risks. Most importantly, the CDL-MCLE-FWM’s reliable operation ensures 99.99% uptime in communication, critical for applications like real-time process control or remote asset monitoring.
CDL-MCLE-FWM
Application areas:
The CDL-MCLE-FWM excels in diverse industrial scenarios where protocol interoperability and signal reliability are key. In automotive manufacturing plants, it connects legacy robotic arms using Profibus DP to a central Ethernet/IP-based PLC, enabling coordinated motion control and real-time error reporting—essential for maintaining production line synchronization. In water treatment facilities, it converts Modbus RTU signals from flow meters and pressure sensors to PROFINET, allowing integration with a SCADA system that monitors and adjusts pump operations, with signal conditioning ensuring accurate readings despite electrical noise from water pumps. The gateway also performs reliably in renewable energy systems, such as solar farms, where it bridges serial communication from inverter controllers to a cloud-based monitoring platform via Ethernet/IP, ensuring seamless data transmission for performance analysis and predictive maintenance. In each application, the CDL-MCLE-FWM acts as a critical enabler of connected industrial systems, directly contributing to operational efficiency and system agility.
Related products:
Before installing the CDL-MCLE-FWM, verify that the input voltage matches the 24V DC requirement and that the power supply includes surge protection to prevent damage from voltage spikes. Check the mounting location in the control panel to ensure adequate ventilation, as the gateway dissipates up to 5W of heat during operation.
During wiring, use shielded twisted-pair cables for both serial and Ethernet connections, and ground the shield at both ends to maximize noise rejection. Configure protocol mappings using the included software, ensuring data registers are correctly aligned between source and target devices to avoid translation errors. For cybersecurity, set up strong passwords for the web interface and restrict access via IP filtering to authorized control system nodes. During maintenance, schedule quarterly firmware updates via the gateway’s remote management feature to address security vulnerabilities and improve protocol compatibility, and inspect cable connections for corrosion or loosening—especially in humid environments.
