The Fastest Path to EtherNet/IP

The GRID45-EIP is a compact, intelligent RJ45 connector designed for OEMs who need to quickly add EtherNet/IP industrial protocol support to Modbus RTU/ASCII-based products — without the risk and delays of in-house protocol development.

The evaluation model, GRID45-EIP-S, ships preloaded with sample EtherNet/IP firmware for proof-of-concept testing. Once your configuration is verified, production units with custom firmware tailored to your application can be ordered.

With its built-in Modbus client and EtherNet/IP adapter software, the GRID45-EIP firmware maps your product’s Modbus serial data, or proprietary serial data,  directly to EtherNet/IP. Allowing seamless communication between protocols without requiring any changes to your existing application code.

Designed for integration into your PCB with minimal redesign, the GRID45-EIP provides device manufacturers the smallest embedded gateway solution available for bridging Modbus and EtherNet/IP. The result: a faster path to market and reduced integration risk.

Note: EtherNet/IP (Ethernet Industrial Protocol) is a specific application layer protocol used in advanced industrial automation environments and is not short-hand for Ethernet Internet Protocol. Grid Connect engineers are available to answer your EtherNet/IP questions.


Need a custom mapping? Build and test it yourself with Protocol Mapper.

Protocol Mapper is a free desktop app (Mac, Windows, Linux) designed specifically for the GRID45-EIP. In two guided steps, configure your Modbus RTU parameters and map registers to EtherNet/IP assemblies - with live validation running as you build. When the configuration is complete, load it directly to a connected GRID45-EIP on your bench. 

When you're ready to move to production, send the validated mapping to us - we'll run conformance testing and deliver a custom part number with the configuration pre-loaded.

Features

On-board protocol translation

  • Adds EtherNet/IP adapter functionality to any Modbus RTU or ASCII device
  • Works with any host processor that has a 3.3V TTL UART serial interface
  • Offloads all network and protocol processing from your host processor - your application code runs unchanged
  • OEM customizations available including Cloud management - remote firmware updates, configuration updates. 
  • Pre-tested against the latest EtherNet/IP Conformance Test to ensure compliance with ODVA requirements.

Industrial-grade hardware

  • Extended temperature range: -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F)
  • Compact RJ45 form factor: 34 x 16.3 x 13.5 mm
  • Integrated 10/100 PHY for wired Ethernet; 802.11BGN wireless; BT/BLE 4.2
  • 3.3V operation; up to 921 kbps UART baud rate

Configure your own mapping with Protocol Mapper - free

  • Set Modbus RTU serial parameters and EtherNet/IP assembly settings side-by-side
  • Map Holding Registers, Input Registers, Discrete Inputs, and Coils to EtherNet/IP assemblies
  • Live conflict detection: address-range overlaps flag immediately; offsets calculate automatically
  • Load directly to a GRID45-EIP on your local network in one click
  • Sign in to sync configurations across machines, or work locally as a guest
  • works with Mac, Windows, and Linux

A clear path from prototype to production

  • The GRID45-EIP-S evaluation unit ships with preloaded sample firmware for proof-of-concept testing
  • Once your mapping is validated on the bench, send it to us for conformance testing
  • We deliver a production-ready custom part number with your configuration pre-loaded
