The 9461-ET Ethernet Gateway gives existing intrinsically safe equipment "Ethernet connectivity" by allowing conventional serial communication port equipment to be connected to an Ethernet network.

Two 9-way D-type serial ports are provided which are RS232/TTL compatible. In addition, the module's front panel screw terminals (T6 - T15) provide two RS485/RS422, 2- or 4- wire ports, giving a total of four serial ports. All ports can operate at speeds up to 115K2baud.

Various protocols are available (eg: Serial Modbus, Modbus/TCP, Ethernet IP etc) in addition to Serial Tunnelling.
