PLC-501 4G/WIFI Industrial IOT Gateway

PLC-501 is an industrially designed product, and is especially used with PLCs. PLC-501 provides program download and data acquisition functionalities for PLCs that have RJ-45 Ethernet interface, or RS232/RS485 serial interfaces. It supports PLCs from Siemens, Mitsubishi, Omron, Panasonic, Delta, Fatek, etc. PLC-501 connects with 4G network, and with PLC programming tools or SCADA software to implement remote program download and data acquisition.

PLC-501 has stand-up shape with more compact size, compared with PLC-502. It has one RJ-45 Ethernet interface, one RS232 and one RS485 serial interface, and Ethernet interface and serial interfaces can be used at the same time.

PLC-501-N4 supports 4G netw ork from China’s three mobile operators, and it can also access Internet via WAN cable network. When cable network is available, it can use WAN cable network.

PLC-501-W0 has WIFI functionality as well, and supports 802.11b/g/n protocol. In theory the highest speed can be 150Mbps. Mobile phones, PCs or other devices that have WIFI functionality can bind PLC-501’s WIFI access point and share Internet access via PLC-501. This greatly extends the number of devices that can connect with PLC-501 at the same time.

PLC-501-W0 can use WAN or WIFI network: in case cable network is available, WAN (LAN1) port can be used to access cable network; and in case WIFI is available, PLC-501 can be configured to access Internet via WIFI. 

PLC-501 is easy to use, and is plug-n-play without any configuration. Together with eTung’s eYun platform and Virhub/Vircom software, it can be easy to integrate with PLC programming software, and there is no extra integration effort. PLC-501 is stable and easy-to-use, thus greatly facilitates project deployment.
