Moxa Introduces IEC 61850 Gateway, Simple and Safe for Substations

Moxa, the leader in industrial edge interconnect solutions, introduces the MGate 5119 Series IEC 61850 gateway to help simplify system integration and enhance substation communications security.

The substation gateways offer DNP3/IEC 101/IEC 104/Modbus to IEC 61850 protocol conversion, easy configuration and troubleshooting.

Security hardening based on IEC 62443 and NERC CIP standards, as well as protocol encryption for enhanced communication security.

Thanks to these features, the MGate 5119 series IEC 61850 gateways are ideal for substation retrofit projects.

Enhanced communication security for substation retrofits

When retrofitting substation automation systems, connecting traditional power devices such as protective relays or remote terminals to the network can cause security problems.

The MGate 5119 Series IEC 61850 gateway, designed based on IEC 62443 and NERC CIP standards, provides embedded security features to ensure that devices are securely interconnected.

In addition, the gateway provides data encryption for protocol communications, helping to enhance network security for critical communications between power SCADA systems and substation gateways.

Simplify Substation Automation System Integration

Simplifying the integration of a wide range of legacy power equipment with a minimum of cost and steps is the key to a modern substation.

The MGate 5119 series of IEC 61850 gateways not only converts protocols such as Modbus, DNP3. IEC 60870 5-101/104. etc. to IEC 61850 MMS protocols.

It also supports time synchronisation to provide consistent time stamping.

In addition, the gateway's easy generation of substation configuration language (SCL) files saves initial deployment time.

To reduce routine maintenance, the MGate 5119 Series supports comprehensive troubleshooting tools that diagnose protocol status, capture traffic information, and find the root cause of communication errors.

Designed for Reliable Continuous Operation

Substation communications require gateways that can operate in harsh conditions. the MGate 5119 Series IEC 61850 gateways provide 2 kV serial isolation voltage.

The MGate 5119 Series IEC 61850 gateway provides 2 kV serial isolation voltage, is certified to IEC 61850-3/IEEE 1613. and supports -40°C to 75°C wide temperature operation.

In addition, the MGate 5119 Series IEC 61850 gateway is backed by an industry-leading 5-year warranty to ensure long-term reliability.
