DL4500-EDH-485: Ethernet TCP/IP to DH-485
PDF Download
Equustek’s gateway interfaces your Ethernet TCP/IP Network to AB’s DH-485, extending the life
of Allen-Bradley PLC’s without Ethernet Interfaces. The DataLink solution allows applications
such as RSLogix, RSLinx, and RSView to access devices on a DH-485 network from an
Ethernet/IP LAN, enabling users to run MMI applications or program and monitor PLCs on a DH-
485 network from an Ethernet LAN station. Other MMI’s tested include Wonderware, Kepware,
and Intellution.
The DL4500-EDH-485 combines the Lantronix Ethernet Microprocessor with Equustek’s DH-485
network technology.
