Communication gateway Anybus AWB2010-B

industrialWiFiEthernet

Overview
The Anybus Wireless Bolt Serial AWB2010-B connects serial equipment to wireless networks via Wi‑Fi or Bluetooth. It enables RS232/RS485 devices to communicate over TCP/IP and can operate as a Modbus‑TCP to Modbus‑RTU router. Engineered for multidirectional and roaming applications, it is suited for AGVs, mobile machines and control cabinets where flexible wireless access is required.

Features and benefits

• Rugged industrial design — IP66/67 enclosure and an extended operating temperature range for harsh environments; certified (CE, FCC, IC, UL, ATEX).
• Serial to TCP/IP conversion — Transparent conversion of RS232/RS485 data to TCP/IP streams.
• Modbus protocol routing — Acts as a router for Modbus‑TCP to Modbus‑RTU enabling access to serial Modbus devices over Ethernet.
• Access Point and Client modes — Can operate as an Access Point supporting up to seven simultaneous clients or as a client in existing networks.
• Integrated communications — Connector, communication processor and antenna combined in one compact unit to reduce installation complexity.
• Fast configuration and diagnostics — Web‑based interface for quick setup; CLI for advanced configuration and network visibility.
• Low total cost of ownership — Integrated antenna and module reduce need for additional accessories.
• Mounting flexibility — Direct cabinet or machine mounting; optional Bolt Base Protector for pole/wall installation.

Applications

• Wireless connectivity for roaming machines (e.g., AGVs) and control cabinets in multidirectional environments.
• Modbus‑TCP to Modbus‑RTU routing for integration of serial Modbus devices into Ethernet networks.
• Field‑level devices requiring short startup times and deterministic communication.
