Chapter 1 Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of the PMC-1302-3 ESG and summarizes many of its key features.
1.1 Overview
The PMC-1302-3 ESG is an Industrial Ethernet Serial/LoRa Gateway which provides one 10/100BaseT
Ethernet port, two RS-485 ports and an optional wireless LoRa port with configurable ISM Bands. It is
the ideal equipment for connecting RS-485 and optionally LoRa enabled devices to an IP-based
Ethernet LAN, making it possible to access serial and optionally LoRa enabled devices over your
Ethernet network for any SCADA or Automation applications. The PMC-1302-3 ESG has been
specifically designed with industrial automation in mind and therefore provides un-surpassed
performance and reliability under the harshest industrial or commercial environments.

1.3 Applications
The PMC-1302-3 ESG supports the efficient transfer of serial packets between the upstream
network-based applications, the downstream RS-485 serial and optionally LoRa wireless devices via a
TCP/IP connection. Instead of using a Windows based "Virtual COM" driver with a port-mapping
utility, which is often plagued with driver incompatibility among the many different Windows
versions, the PMC-1302-3 ESG allows applications to directly connect to it via a TCP/IP connection for
the transparent transfer of serial packets inside TCP/IP frames to and from downstream devices.
Perfectly suited for communicating with industrial devices that have timing sensitive protocols, the
PMC-1302-3 ESG provides a reliable interface which allows SCADA or similar applications that already
support direct connection with Ethernet Gateway to communicate with serial devices independent of
the serial protocols used.
The PMC-1302-3 ESG optionally supports the LoRa port with configurable ISM Bands for wireless IoT
applications in most countries.
