• Automatic setup and maintaining of IP-based connection via two-wire lines
• Merging of distributed, IP-based networks via two or multi-wire line infrastructure
• Bi-directional IP-based data communication with a telecontrol center, e.g. ST7cc or ST7sc, WinCC or PCS 7
• Integrated security functions with firewall (Stateful Inspection)
• Integrated IPsec VPN tunnel encryption
• Data exchange between telecontrol stations (slave-slave communication) via a TIM communication module in the service center
• Secure data communication with the SINAUT ST7 stations

Data rates depending on the distance

• The resulting data rate depends on the following parameters
  • the length of a two-wire line
  • the cross-section of the two-wire line used
  • Age and quality of the two-wire line used

Note:

Instead of guaranteed values, the table contains indications as to typical relations between bandwidth and distance for two cables. The actually achieved values depend on the length, cross-section, age and quality of the cable used.

Supported topologies

• Point-to-point connection
• Aggregation of two twin wires as a virtual connection with double data rate
• Setup of line topologies

Configuration

• User-friendly configuration of all network and firewall parameters of the router using the web browser
  • CLI (Command Line Interface) available soon
  • Integration in TIA Portal available soon

Security

• Router for data transmission via private two-wire line infrastructures with NAT functionality (NAT Traversal, NAPT, 1:1-NAT)
• Standardized VPN termination of the control center
  • by means of IPsec protocol
  • OpenVPN available soon
• Firewall for protection against unauthorized access; the dynamic packet filter checks data packets based on the source and target address (Stateful Inspection)

Diagnostics / maintenance

• Connection buildup status and status of an existing connection via front LED display
