MGate™ 5109 Series

1-port Modbus RTU/ASCII/TCP-to-DNP3 serial/TCP/UDP gateways

The MGate 5109 is an industrial Ethernet gateway for Modbus RTU/
ASCII/TCP and DNP3 serial/TCP/UDP protocol conversion. All models 
are protected with a rugged metallic casing, are DIN-rail mountable, 
and offer built-in serial isolation. The MGate 5109 supports transparent 
mode for easily integrating Modbus TCP to Modbus RTU/ASCII 
networks or DNP3 TCP/UDP to DNP3 serial networks. The MGate 

The MGate 5109 series gateways support Modbus and DNP3 
Protocol Traffic Monitor for easy troubleshooting, especially during 
the installation stage. Communication issues could be caused by 
incorrect software parameters, such as slave ID and register address, 

5109 also support agent mode to exchange data between Modbus and 
DNP3 networks or to act as a data concentrator for multiple Modbus 
slaves or multiple DNP3 outstations. The rugged design is suitable 
for industrial applications such as power, oil & gas, and water and 
wastewater.

or incorrect command configuration. With Modbus/DNP3 Protocol 
Traffic Monitor, you can check the captured data and easily identify the 
root cause.

The MGate 5109 series gateway provides a web console and Telnet 
console for remote maintenance. Encryption communication functions, 
including HTTPS and SSH, are supported to provide better network 

security. In addition, firmware log functions are provided to record 
connection events and Modbus maintenance events. Users can review 
log data remotely through the web console.

The MGate 5109 series comes with an illustrated Quick Setup guide 
designed to make configuration easy. With Quick Setup, you can easily 
access protocol conversion modes and finish the configuration in a
