Telecontrol: Efficient remote control systems

Industrial process plants often extend over large areas – sometimes even crossing national boarders. To reliably monitor them, operators need secure and cost-effective access to their remote plants. Take advantage of our tailor-made and efficient telecontrol solutions for the process industry and public infrastructure. Our products are based on SIMATIC, the world’s leading automation system. They are therefore part of Totally Integrated Automation (TIA), our open system architecture for consistent, plant-wide automation.
