We have been using the AB7007 gateway for Modbus RTU to Ethernet/IP. I no longer see it available on the website. When using the product wizard, it says the RTU to EIP gateway is the AB7072. Is the AB7072 a replacement for the AB7007?
Hello,
You are correct, the AB7072 is the exact same except it has 2 Ethernet ports (that act as a switch for daisy chaining or DLR).
Best regards,
Nick
Thanks, Nick. We will start using the AB7072 instead of the AB7007.
Great, thanks for the update!

Sorry to jump in but will all of the downloads for the AB7072 work with the AB7007? Our distributor recently provided the AB7007 so I want to confirm if the utilities and the materials specific to Logix 5000 will still be applicable.
Thanks! Brian
Hello Brian,
All the downloads should be the same. The only exception would be the EDS file, I believe the description will be different. You will want to grab the EDS from the AB7007 downloads page.
