Durchgängige Kommunikation von der Fördertechnik bis zum Airport Operation Center: SIMATIC Net

Siemens communication networks of any kind and any standard, for all kinds of applications, are available from Siemens, either separately or in combination with dedicated software systems and solutions. In the latter case, we can take over the role of master systems integrator and carry out the complete installation and integration, as well as the design, sizing and after-sales service of the hardware environment with the utmost care.

SIMATIC NET-The open concept which has proven itself worldwide

SIMATIC NET is the name of whole family of networks.

For your Industrial Ethernet Network on reliable video, LAN and data communication airport network solutions, see: SIMATIC NET.

The individual members satisfy a wide range of different performance and application requirements:
They ensure reliable data exchange between different levels, between different devices or between different automation stations. They also have uniform system interfaces and are perfectly adapted to each other.

The SIMATIC NET members at a glance:

  • Industrial Ethernet (IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u) – the international standard for area and cell networking.
  • Industrial Wireless LAN (IEE 802.11a/b/g/h – the robust, available and secure Wireless LAN for industry
  • PROFINET (IEC 61158 / IEC 61784) is an open Ethernet communication system for industrial applications in automation which ensures high-performance real-time communication and unrestricted IT communication at the same time in one network.
  • PROFIBUS (IEC 61158/EN 50170) – the international standard for the field and cell area
  • AS Interface (EN 50 295) – the international standard for communication with sensors and actuators
  • EIB (EN 50090, ANSI EIA 776) – the worldwide standardized building installation system and the basis for building automation

Networks installed in all important industry sectors, with thousands of network nodes, attest to the success of One of the reasons is that, from the very beginning, SIMATIC NET has been built on standards consistently since Siemens has been a member of the standard committees working on international industrial communication standards from the start.

For you this translates to long-term investment security: Thanks to the careful gradation of performance capability you can implement company-wide communications with SIMATIC NET – from the simplest of devices right up to highly complex systems.
