SoftPLC Gateways bridge devices on one network to devices on other networks. Each Gateway is equipped with a comprehensive set of drivers, which you
can mix and match with hardware configurations to meet your network bridging needs.
 The Smart Gateway is a value-priced option that includes a 4-port 10/100 BaseT Ethernet managed switch with PoE (optional fiber interface), (5) serial RS-232 ports,
support for up to (3) user selectable PCI-104 network interface cards. Optionally, the COM6 port can be factory configured for RS-485, A-B RIO or an internal phone modem for remote access.
