Two open-box Moxa fieldbus gateway listings are in front of you, and both titles point to the 4101-MB-PBS designation. One is titled MGATE 4101-MB-PBS; the other is titled 4101-MB-PBS with an extra data-rate note in the title. Both sit under the Network Switches type, carry the Moxa brand, and show an open-box condition. The practical decision is not about technology differences, because each title claims the 1-port fieldbus gateway role; it is about which listing to pick when you compare the listed price and the way the model name appears.
Quick verdict
If you want a lower listed price and a short title that tells you the data rate, the Moxa 4101-MB-PBS is the direct pick. If you prefer the longer listing with the higher listed price, the Moxa MGATE 4101-MB-PBS is the alternative. Both are open-box units from Moxa, so the choice rests on price and title style.

Product notes
Moxa MGATE 4101-MB-PBS
If you want a Moxa fieldbus gateway listing that leads with the full model name, this is the one to consider. It carries the higher listed price of the pair, and the title gives you the MGATE prefix plus the opened descriptor. The trade-off is that the higher price does not add a separate specification to the title; the Moxa 4101-MB-PBS listing spells out a data rate that this one does not. Both are open-box and share the same brand and Network Switches type, so the selection comes down to model-name style and how much you want to pay.
Moxa 4101-MB-PBS
The Moxa 4101-MB-PBS takes the lower-priced side of this fieldbus gateway comparison. Its title gives you the exact 230.4 Kbps data rate, which is helpful if you need that spec visible at a glance. The limitation is the shorter model name: no MGATE prefix appears, so this listing does not carry the full model naming used on the higher-priced listing. If the data-rate spec is the deciding factor and you want to keep the listed price lower, this open-box unit is the more direct option.
Final choice by use case
For a lower listed price and a title that calls out the data rate, the Moxa 4101-MB-PBS is the one to pick. For the longer listing title and its higher listed price, the Moxa MGATE 4101-MB-PBS is the remaining choice.
