The ProLinx EtherNet/IP to BACnet/IP Client Gateway creates a powerful connection between devices on an EtherNet/IP network and BACNET devices. This stand-alone DIN-rail mounted protocol gateway provides a single Ethernet port. The Ethernet/IP protocol driver supports the Explicit Messaging implementation of the protocol. User-configurable as both a Client and a Server, the EtherNet/IP port is a very powerful data transfer tool.
The DFNT-BACNET modules are the ideal solution for the many applications where EtherNet/IP connectivity can be used to integrate with Ethernet-enabled BACnet devices. The BACnet/IP Edition 2 driver supports a single UDP client to interface with one or more devices that contain a BACnet server. The EtherNet/IP gateway is a powerful module designed with both Client and Server support, enabling easy connection to Rockwell Automation PLCs (CLX, SLC, PLC, CPLX, and similar devices). In combination with the BACnet device support, the module provides a very powerful interface to the many BACnet devices which are in use in the building automation and control marketplace today.

The EtherNet/IP protocol driver supports the Explicit Messaging implementation of the protocol. User-configurable as both a Client and a Server, the EtherNet/IP port is a very powerful data transfer tool.
The EtherNet/IP protocol is one of the primary connectivity tools to the different Rockwell Automation platforms. The Explicit Messaging aspect of the protocol (only) has been implemented in the ProLinx units to provide the data transfer link between the ProLinx units and the Rockwell Automation hardware.
