MQTT—Enabling Edge-Device Connectivity in the IIoT Era
What Is MQTT? The MQTT messaging protocol was first developed in 1999 by IBM and Cirrus Link, and was accepted as an ISO standard in 2013, starting with version 3.1. MQTT uses a publish-subscribe pattern (see Figure 2) to exchange messages. As illustrated in the figure, an MQTT system comprises one broker and several clients, where clients can either be publishers or subscribers. Publishers send data to the broker in the form of MQTT packets, which consist of a “topic” and “payload.” The broker then distributes the data to subscribers based on which topics they have expressed interest in. The MQTT protocol does not specify a standard format for transmitting data, although it is common for applications to use either the JSON protocol or plain text. Compared with other protocols, MQTT has advantages that make it a perfect match for IoT applications.

Wat moet ik gebruiken: Mgates of NPorts ?
Er is af en toe verwarring als men Modbus RTU seriële apparaten wil koppelen met een SCADA. Al dan niet gebruikt makend van het Ethernet-netwerk. Heeft men dan een specifieke protocolconversie gateway nodig? Bijvoorbeeld een Mgate MB3180 of MGate MB3170. Of kan men een seriële device server gebruiken ? Zoals bijvoorbeeld een model uit de NPort 5100 serie of NPort 5100A serie.

Modbus-RTU-to-Modbus-TCP Conversions in 60 Seconds
Since the advent of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), protocol conversion has been the key to connecting legacy and multivendor devices to networks. The most common protocol conversion is Modbus-RTU-to-Modbus-TCP conversion, and is usually required when metering devices, mostly using Modbus RTU, need to be integrated with SCADA systems, mostly using Modbus TCP. For factory or plant owners, this kind of integration ensures that they reap the benefits of the IIoT, such as reducing energy consumption while maximizing productivity.
