SIEMENS Industrial Communication company News and Trends items

Siemens is expanding its portfolio of network components with the launch of a new Direct Access Point: the Scalance W1750D-2IA RJ45. It transmits in accordance with the latest WLAN Standard IEEE 802.11ac Wave 2. Scalance W1750D-2IA RJ45 is capable of transmitting at extremely high data rates, making the device particularly suited for wireless applications requiring high ...

Siemens is extending its Scalance portfolio for industrial networks to include the new Test Access Port Scalance Tap104. Unlike other network components, rather than rejecting faulty telegrams the Scalance Tap104 enables all data traffic in both directions to be exported for analysis. The new tap supports Fast Ethernet with 10/100 megabits per second and operates at temp...

Siemens is expanding its Ruggedcom portfolio for industrial communication. For its Ruggedcom RX1400 router, the company is now also offering a wireless local area network (WLAN) interface which is used as a WLAN IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n access point or client, and comes with a bandwidth of up to 300 Mbit/s. The Ruggedcom RX1400 is part of the Siemens portfolio for industrial c...

With its Scalance XC-200 product line, Siemens is bringing a new generation of compact Industrial Ethernet switches onto the market. Users can use them to set up electrical and optical line, star and ring structures in industrial networks. The layer 2 network components can be integrated into both Profinet and EtherNet/IP diagnostics. The switches are characterized by th...

With its new Scalance XP-200 product line, Siemens offers compact Industrial Ethernet switches for the setup of electrical line, star and ring structures. The devices feature a low-profile, robust metal enclosure with a high degree of protection (IP65/67) and a wide operating temperature range from 40 °C to +70 °C. This provides flexibility to be deployed outside the co...

SCALANCE X Industrial Ethernet switches form the robust backbone of any industrial network and enable communication with unmanaged and managed layer 2 and layer 3-capable switches. A new product has been added to the portfolio in the form of the Scalance XB004-2 switch. This new product is particularly suited for creating line topologies of up to five kilometers in lengt...

Siemens has widened the possible uses of the Simatic ET 200SP distributed controller with the three new communications processors CP 1542SP-1, CP 1543SP-1 and CP 1542SP-1 IRC. These processors give the controller an additional Industrial Ethernet interface, with which the user can implement flexible communication solutions. This simplifies the integration of series m...

The new PC communication processor CP 1604 EEC - PCI-104 module - connects field devices to Industrial Ethernet using Profinet. Equipped with Profinet IO controller and device functionality, CP 1604 EEC supports control tasks on a PC, for instance for PC-based, numeric or robot control. Use of Profinet isochronous real time (IRT) makes the communication processor additio...
