Digital Business Efficient networking with digitalized data
At Phoenix Contact, we prefer to do business digitally. This can be done in a variety of ways. You can use an EDI connection, a link to the SCSN platform, or order through our eShop. Placing orders digitally is not only the most efficient way, but also the safest with regard to cyber security. There is no risk of errors and sending files via e-mail is becoming increasingly difficult. Emails often end up in the spam box and it is becoming increasingly difficult for our employees to determine which files are safe to open.

SCSN: Smart Connected Supplier Network
Through our service provider ECI-Gatewise, we are connected to the Smart Connected Supplier Network (SCSN). SCSN works with one standard. This gives us the ability to connect easier and faster.
How does it work?
The SCSN is a network of companies that exchange digital order-related messages with each other. After connecting once to a SCSN Service Provider, companies can communicate with all other companies connected to another SCSN Service Provider. This is made possible by strict technical and commercial agreements between the service providers, which are managed by the independent SCSN Foundation. SCSN is basically a standardized EDI connection.
Your advantages
- Less labor intensive
- Less chance of errors through digital communication flows
- Fast and reliable exchange of information
- One infrastructure for multiple connections
- Rapid large-scale information exchange
The following data is sent via this platform: orders, order confirmations, packing slips and invoices.
If you are interested in connecting to the SCSN, take a look at the website and compare the available serviceproviders.
