Z-KEY OPC UA (HW rev. G0)

Z-KEY OPC UA is a Modbus<->OPC UA gateway is a device that enables integration between the Modbus protocol, which is widely used in industrial settings for communication between devices such as PLCs, sensors, and actuators, and the OPC UA (Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture) protocol, which provides a modern, secure, and scalable platform for data exchange in the industrial environment. Z-KEY OPC UA complete with two serial and one Ethernet ports, acts as a translator between the two protocols, enabling Modbus-based devices to communicate with OPC UA-compatible systems. This is particularly useful in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) or Industry 4.0 applications, where open, interoperable standards are crucial to ensure efficient data collection and analysis from plant, machinery, and distributed systems. With this device, an existing Modbus-based infrastructure can be integrated with modern technologies that support real-time data collection, processing, and distribution for advanced industrial process monitoring and control.
