Overview
The Moxa MGate 5134 is an industrial Ethernet gateway that converts Modbus RTU/ASCII/TCP to PROFINET network communications. Designed to integrate existing Modbus devices onto PROFINET networks, the MGate 5134 acts as a Modbus client to collect data from end devices and exchange it with a PROFINET host. The rugged metal housing, DIN-rail mounting, and 2 kV serial isolation make it suitable for factory automation, power, oil and gas, water and wastewater, and other process automation industries.

Modbus & PROFINET Capacity
The MGate 5134 supports Modbus function codes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 15, 16, and 23. Modbus RTU/ASCII Client mode handles up to 31 server connections with 128 commands per serial port. Modbus TCP Client mode supports 32 server connections with 128 commands. Total Modbus output and input data sizes are 2048 bytes each. PROFINET IO Device class B mode supports 2 IO Controllers as shared devices, with 1440 bytes of input and output data per controller (2880 bytes total each direction).
Connectivity & Management
Two 10/100BaseT(X) RJ45 ports with 1.5 kV magnetic isolation enable Ethernet cascading and dual subnet deployment. The RS-232/422/485 serial port supports 300 bps to 921.6 kbps via DB9 male connector, with software-configurable RS-485 termination and ADDC. Configuration is via Web Console (HTTPS) or Device Search Utility. Security features include HTTPS (TLS 1.3), AES-128/256, SHA-256, and SNMPv3.
Power & Environmental
Powered by redundant dual 12 to 48 VDC inputs via spring-type Euroblock terminal, drawing up to 455 mA. The MGate 5134-T operates across the full wide-temperature range of -40 to 75°C, suitable for unconditioned cabinets, outdoor enclosures, and harsh industrial environments. Ambient humidity tolerance is 5 to 95% non-condensing. The metal IP30 housing supports DIN-rail and wall mounting.
