Industrial Networks

We design the network as deliberately as the control logic — ring redundancy, managed switches that report into PLC diagnostics, and a physical layer specified rather than improvised on site.

SCALANCE X Ethernet Switches

Managed and unmanaged switches built for the panel rather than the server room. Managed variants support media redundancy so a single broken cable in a ring does not stop the line, and report themselves into the PLC diagnostics like any other PROFINET device.

SCALANCE W Wireless & S Security

Industrial WLAN for moving equipment with fast roaming that keeps a PROFINET connection alive as a vehicle passes between access points, plus firewalls and VPN routers that separate the automation network from the enterprise network.

Communication Processors & Media

Communication processors that add a segregated network, PROFIBUS DP or secured connectivity to a controller, plus the physical layer too many projects treat as an afterthought — FastConnect cable, IE connectors, fibre and PROFIBUS terminators.
