■
Overview
•
Router for wireless IP communication between Industrial
Ethernet-based programmable controllers via mobile radio
networks of the 3rd generation (UMTS) and the 2nd gener-
ation (GSM)
•
High data transfer rate thanks to HSDPA
•
Integrated security functions with firewall
•
Use as VPN end point (IPsec)
■
Benefits
•
Low investment and operating costs for operator control and
monitoring of wirelessly connected telecontrol substations
•
Reduced travel costs and telephone charges thanks to remote
programming and remote diagnosis via UMTS
•
High level of security thanks to an integrated firewall and VPN
with IPsec
•
Utilization of existing UMTS/GSM infrastructure of the mobile
radio providers
•
Worldwide application
■
Application
•
Can be used in industrial and semi-industrial applications due
to its design and electrical properties
•
Remote programming and maintenance worldwide, e.g. with
STEP 7 via the high-speed UMTS interface
•
Linking of mobile stations, with central monitoring and control
•
Energy-saving concepts in distributed systems, e.g. through
status-dependent speed control of pumps in remote stations
•
Control and monitoring of
- Sewage treatment plants, water treatment
- Oil and gas supplies
- District heating networks
- Power distribution
- Pumping stations
- Transportation systems
- Buildings
- Wind energy and photovoltaic plants
•
Connection of telecontrol substations (e.g. SINAUT ST7) to
control center via UMTS
•
Video transmission e.g. from moving vehicles such as buses
and trains
•
Can be used worldwide due to:
- UMTS: Penta-band technology
- GSM: Quad-band technology
Note:
Country-specific approvals must be observed.
Due to the integral security functions, the SCALANCE M875
UMTS router enables protected connection of distributed
automation cells to a control center via the mobile wireless
network, and it can be used within the scope of the Siemens
Remote Service. This comprehensive service allows companies
to task Siemens with the monitoring, control and maintenance of
distant plants and machines via remote access.
