Modbus RS485 master - KNX Gateway

DIN-Rail mount modules

CODE: EK-BH1-TP-485

Description

The Ekinex® Modbus RS485 - KNX Gateway performs a protocol conversion between a serial RS485 Modbus RTU and a KNX TP network. The device works as Modbus master. The device integrates a KNX bus communication module and it is suitable for mounting on a 35 mm DIN rail; it requires an auxiliary power supply.
