Open-protocol connection of automation solutions to the control center

• In the transportation infrastructure, the most diverse range of devices with an equally diverse range of protocols have to be integrated into the control systems.
• Phoenix Contact offers systems with interfaces that support a range of popular automation protocols and use different transmission media.
• Interface converters, protocol converters, and data concentrators are available for the efficient integration of distributed system parts.

Most applications in the transportation infrastructure involve large structures that have been continuously modernized and extended over the years.

As a result, suppliers of individual components or systems are often confronted with the demand for specific communication protocols. This is because a key aspect of communication is integration in a control system or control rooms that typically use specific protocols or mechanisms.

Products and systems from Phoenix Contact offer an extraordinary range of options for connecting automation solutions to the control room. The control technology provides users with application protocols and mechanisms from the field of classic automation as well as information technology.

Furthermore, all media must be supported when it comes to communication with control rooms and control systems. Phoenix Contact therefore offers components for wired or wireless communication as well as dedicated or public networks. All relevant data is sent from the field application to the control system, and therefore the operator, in real time.
