MultiNet4 provides devices with serial ModBus to ModBus TCP/IP communications capability on an Ethernet network, allowing connection to LAN and WAN network systems via fiber or wire media. MultiNet4’s four serial ports have the capability to connect up to 128 serial ModBus devices, eliminating complex wiring and additional communications converters, while also enabling connectivity to the network via a fully-managed 4-port Ethernet switch. With individually-configurable ports, MultiNet4's serial connectors can be set to work at different speeds and even with different Modbus TCP settings, enabling and optimizing collection of serial device data. MultiNet4 is also environmentally hardened to withstand severe utility and industrial conditions, and supports a variety of mounting options. ApplicationsProvides network connectivity to relays, IEDs, and other serial devices

Typical Configuration 
Designed for industrial and utility environments MultiNet4 was designed for industrial and utility applications. Unlike most serial-to-Ethernet devices, MultiNet4 is industrially-hardened to withstand the harshest environmental conditions.
Temperature range of -40ºC to 85ºC
Internal DC and AC Power supply
Industrial/Utility Hardened (IEC 61850, 60225, IEEE 1613)
Part of your complete Industrial Networking solution Like all Multilin products, MultiNet4 is designed and built by the same people who build GE Multilin IEDs and relays, and are designed as part of complete solution for utility and industrial applications.
