Industrial Communication and Networking 

Industrial communication and networking solutions support industry in connecting its machines and plants

Network components, training courses, services, and support based on proven standards

Companies need industrial communication to control machines, plants, or power distribution. Optimal utilization of the data generated in production also requires that Operational Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT) networks seamlessly interact. Our industrial communication portfolio permits the optimal networking of automation components based on professional infrastructure planning and implementation using SCALANCE and RUGGEDCOM network components. With our complete range of solutions for industrial networking, we help you to lay an optimal foundation for digitalization and accompany you from the very start as you navigate the digital transformation.

Industrial Ethernet

The basis for efficient automation: with increasing digitalization, the requirements on industrial communications networks are rising continually. Powerful, integrated, and more and more real-time capable communications networks are required. Industrial Ethernet is the tried-and-tested technology that can meet these challenges – including the Ethernet-based standard TSN (Time-Sensitive Networking) in the future.

Industrial Ethernet Switches / Media Converters

Network Transitions

Industrial Wireless Communication

Wireless communication offers many possibilities in the industry for particularly flexible and efficient automation solutions. We offer a comprehensive range of products, solutions and services covering the entire industrial wireless communication spectrum from Industrial Wireless LAN (IWLAN) to WiMAX and WirelessHART. Whether your applications include logistics or port facilities, automobile manufacturing or amusement parks, our components for wireless communication cover various indoor as well as outdoor applications, even under the toughest conditions.

WiMAX

Industrial Remote Communication

Industrial plants are frequently widely spread apart – sometimes even across countries and borders. Siemens offers proven solutions for industrial remote access in public infrastructure, the manufacturing and the process industries, for both telecontrol and teleservice applications. For connecting plants distributed around the world, we offer a broad spectrum of industrial routers, both for wired and wireless access to private and public networks (remote networks). This also allows further remote applications such as video surveillance, condition monitoring, and smart grid applications.

Teleservice

Rugged Communication

With RUGGEDCOM, the name speaks for itself. RUGGEDCOM products set new standards for quality and reliability for communication networks deployed in harsh environments. Covering an extremely wide temperature range, they offer zero-packet-loss technology under high electromagnetic interference and enhanced Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (eRSTP™) for ultra-high-speed network fault recovery.

Industrial Network Solutions

Because all networks are not alike

With industrial network solutions, we help our customers to lay an optimal foundation for digitalization through the reliable and efficient interaction between OT and IT and accompany them as they navigate the digital transformation.
Industrial network solutions from Siemens optimally link OT and IT

Optimally connecting OT and IT

OT networks are part of automation. Because failures can quickly become extremely costly, these networks have to be constantly available and reliable. Data transmission has to be performed reliably at all times, even under difficult conditions. In IT, which is tailored to end users, the main focus is on the speed at which data can be transmitted and used. Whereas data in the field usually flows horizontally, IT networks are vertically oriented. Communication between clients runs vertically via a server.

 

Both networks have to meet the strictest requirements for cybersecurity, adapted to each one’s specific circumstances. In-depth knowledge of both automation and IT is required if everything is to be optimally interconnected.

Communication standards and bus systems

Best conditions for open communication

Communication via open platforms and standards ensures that automation systems and networks seamlessly interact.

OPC UA

On the path to digitalization – thanks to open, platform-neutral communication with OPC UA

PROFINET

PROFINET – the leading Industrial Ethernet standard for automation – supports you in creating end-to-end, integrated processes and configuring networked interfaces.

Time-Sensitive Networking - TSN

In industrial networks, the Ethernet-based standard TSN enables reserved bandwidths, quality of service (QoS) mechanisms, low transmission latency, and parallel transmission of multiple protocols – even real-time-capable ones.

PROFIBUS

PROFIBUS can be adapted to the most diverse applications following a modular concept and proves its worth in all segments of discrete automation and the process industries.

AS-Interface

AS-Interface (AS-i) provides you with an effective and powerful bus system which connects all sensors and actuators on the lowest field level with the superior control – with unrivaled ease, safety and integration!

IO-Link

Integrating all components is simplified by IO-Link in switchboards and IO-Link at the field level. They ensure maximum consistency and efficiency on the last steps to the process and thereby seamless communication.

Industrial Communication Highlights

At Siemens, industrial communication is not only about hardware products. You can also obtain special services and support, along with domain-specific expertise to help ensure continued success for your projects.

CloudConnect

Shorter development cycles, higher productivity and improved quality – cloud computing is an important prerequisite to profit from the benefits of digitalization in industry. All this can work only if the cloud receives valid data from the field. CloudConnect connects machine developers, engineers and plant planners to the future – unbelievably simply, quickly, and securely.

Industrial 5G

Industrie 4.0, the smart factory, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) – these are the future of industrial manufacturing. Designing production plants and intralogistics to be more flexible, autonomous, and efficient requires the right communication framework and comprehensive connectivity. The new 5G communication standard opens up important new prospects.
