Multiplus II GX + smart meter over Ethernet

I have added a Multiplus II GX to an existing Fronius Symo 3.6kW 1ph installation. Since the installation is located outside the house (shed), it is not straightforward to add 485 cables to the smart meter. Is there any (energy) smart meter available that can be integrated with Multiplus II GX via Ethernet (Modbus)?

Hi

Use RS485 wireless network, works well enough, use them all the time.

Hi, I was thinking about it too. Better solution to use converters 485 over Ethernet. But the question was: Does exist any Energy meter which could work with Multiplus II GX over ethernet. Lets keep it simple. No additional not necessary devices. ;)
