SMG-6100 Hardware Introduction
Overview
The SMG-6100 is based on the Intel x86 processor and supports VGA, 4 Ethernet ports, 2 RS-232 serial ports,
and USB. It comes in a standard 19-inch, 1U high form factor with built-in IPSec, making it an ideal
communication platform for industrial machine-to-machine M2M applications.
The SMG-6100 can be used as a communication gateway with sophisticated M2M solutions to help construct a
tunnel server (IPSec) and bi-directional IP communications. When used with Moxa’s SMG-1100, the SMG-6100
can serve as a secure networking host over IPSec to back-end host computers and Modbus TCP Master/Slave
devices. One of the key benefits in this architecture is to facilitate and accelerate the remote monitoring and
management of Modbus devices.
