Industrial gateways play a crucial role in industrial internet connectivity and digital transformation, with one of their core functions being the conversion between various industrial protocols. This article will focus on common protocol conversion scenarios for industrial gateways and introduce the product features and customization capabilities of Yeaplink Technology’s SG500 energy consumption gateway as an example.
First, let’s understand some typical scenarios where industrial gateways need to perform protocol conversion:
Industrial Ethernet is widely adopted in the industrial automation field, but different manufacturers and devices use various industrial Ethernet protocols, such as Profinet, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, etc. Industrial gateways need to seamlessly convert between these protocols to achieve device interconnection.
Conversion Between Industrial Buses and Industrial Ethernet
In addition to Ethernet, many industrial devices also use various fieldbuses, such as Profibus, CANopen, DeviceNet, Modbus RTU, etc. To integrate these devices into Ethernet-based systems, industrial gateways need to convert between industrial bus protocols and industrial Ethernet protocols.
Conversion Between Industrial Protocols and IoT Protocols
With the development of industrial IoT, more and more industrial devices need to upload data to the cloud for analysis and management. This requires industrial gateways to convert data collected from industrial protocols like OPC UA, Modbus, etc., to IoT protocols like MQTT, for integration into IoT platforms.
Conversion Between Different Industrial Wireless Protocols
In some wireless application scenarios, industrial devices may use wireless protocols like WirelessHART, ISA100.11a, etc. Industrial gateways need to convert and transmit data between these wireless protocols and wired networks.
Conversion Between Serial Ports and Networks
Many traditional industrial devices use RS232/RS485 serial communication. To integrate them into networks, industrial gateways need to convert between serial protocols like Modbus RTU and network protocols like Modbus TCP.
Next, let’s take Yeaplink Technology’s SG500 energy consumption gateway as an example to see how it addresses various protocol conversion needs. The SG500 is an edge gateway specifically designed for building energy consumption monitoring, with the following highlights:
For customized needs in different industries and projects, the SG500 energy consumption gateway can also provide some special protocol conversion functions:
Through flexible conversion of various industrial protocols, industrial gateways help achieve interconnection between industrial devices and IT systems, becoming a key component of the industrial internet architecture. With its deep accumulation in the IoT field, Yeaplink Technology, represented by the SG500 energy consumption gateway, can provide customers with a one-stop edge gateway solution of “connectivity + computing + customization,” facilitating digital transformation for industrial enterprises.
