Digital Energy
The MultiNetTM is an industrially-hardened protocol converter that provides access for ModBus RTU
devices onto a TCP/IP Ethernet network. Designed to meet the unique networking and environmental
requirements of the Protection & Control industry, MultiNet devices ensure continuous connection
with and control of serial devices through your communications network. The MultiNet family of
devices are designed and built to meet the needs of the utility industry, and are tested to the
same environment and conditions as all GE Multilin devices to deliver a solution that maximizes the
availability of your critical infrastructure.
