ABB, the global leader in industrial technology, today announced the launch of the new 1TGE120071R1000 MLink communication gateway control module. This module is part of ABB’s MLink family of products and is designed for extending servo-driven communication gateways. The 1TGE120071R1000 module supports a variety of fieldbus protocols, including Profibus, Modbus RTU/TCP and PROFINET IO, providing a powerful network interconnection capability for industrial automation and control systems.

The communication gateway control module, also known as the protocol converter, is mainly used to achieve data exchange and interconnection between different networks, especially between networks with different high-level protocols. It can realize network interconnection at the transport layer and is one of the most complex network interconnection devices. The 1TGE120071R1000 module is capable of running on the seventh layer of the OSI model, the application layer, providing data format conversion, language translation, and even communication between systems with completely different architectures.
