Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to select the correct communication gateway for your 3500 system:
- Protocol Required: Modbus TCP → 3500/92-02-01-00 ✓ | PROFIBUS → 3500/92-04-01-00 | OPC-DA → confirm with BN configurator
- Number of Ethernet Ports: Single port → 3500/92-02-01-00 ✓ | Dual port → 3500/92E series
- Rack Slot Availability: Confirm single-slot availability in your 3500 rack before ordering
- Firmware Version: Match gateway firmware to your System 1 software version to avoid communication errors
- Redundancy Requirement: For redundant communication, two 3500/92-02-01-00 modules may be required

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can I use 3500/92-02-01-01 as a direct replacement for 3500/92-02-01-00?
A: Yes, in most cases the -01 revision is a direct drop-in replacement. Verify firmware compatibility with your System 1 version.
Q: Is the 3500/92-02-01-00 compatible with Modbus RTU as well as TCP?
A: The module primarily supports Modbus TCP over Ethernet. RS-232/RS-485 Modbus RTU support depends on firmware configuration — contact us to confirm.
Q: Can a third-party Modbus gateway replace this module?
A: Third-party gateways can bridge data but are not certified 3500 rack modules and do not support native System 1 integration or API 670 compliance. Not recommended for safety-critical applications.
Q: Do you provide a warranty on refurbished units?
A: Yes, refurbished units carry a 12-month functional warranty. New OEM units follow manufacturer warranty terms.
Q: How long does shipping take to my country?
A: Standard international shipping is 5–10 business days via DHL/FedEx. Express options available upon request.
