PROSOFT PLX32-EIP-SIE Industrial Ethernet Gateway

Engineers often describe the PLX32-EIP-SIE as a “workhorse” for industrial network integration. This gateway module bridges Ethernet/IP networks with legacy systems through its dual-port design, particularly useful in environments where real-time data synchronization matters – think assembly lines needing precise PLC-to-VFD coordination or oil rigs managing remote sensor arrays.

Real-World Implementation

We’ve seen this module deployed in automotive plants where it manages robot arm synchronization, and in food processing facilities handling hygiene-critical temperature sensors. One customer in Shenzhen reported 30% faster network response times after replacing legacy gateways with the PLX32-EIP-SIE. It pairs particularly well with Allen-Bradley ControlLogix systems through our stocked 1756-ENBT modules, or when upgrading older Siemens S7-300 installations.

Our Value Proposition

While ProSoft doesn’t directly market this model anymore, we maintain active inventory through global channels. Our 16 regional warehouses ensure standard orders ship within 48 hours – critical for emergency replacements. Every unit comes with our 12-month warranty covering both functionality and performance, which has saved clients like a Dubai-based energy firm from unexpected downtime costs.
