The ProSoft MVI46-MBP is a Modbus Plus communication module designed specifically for Rockwell Automation SLC series PLCs. It supports Master and Slave modes, enabling high-speed bidirectional data exchange between the PLC backplane and the Modbus Plus network.
The module provides a 4000-word register data buffer, supporting industrial-grade communication stability. Its single-slot design facilitates installation in SLC racks, with a maximum backplane power supply of 800mA @ 5VDC. The module operates in temperatures from 0°C to +60°C, with a storage temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, a relative humidity of 5%–95% (non-condensing), and is shock resistant to 30g (operating) and 50g (non-operating), and vibration resistant to 5g @ 10–150Hz, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. Equipped with a dual Modbus Plus port (DB-9) and a configuration/debugging port (RJ-45 to DB-9), it supports network scheduling and data transmission control via PLC ladder logic.
The MVI46-MBP is suitable for industrial automation, process control, and remote data integration scenarios, and is a reliable choice for expanding and integrating Modbus Plus networks.
