Finally, a concept is available which eliminates the risks associated with the use of integrated Ethernet structures and Internet technology for production areas and other sensitive areas of your company. The hardware and software of SCALANCE S together constitute a well-thought-out security system. SCALANCE S has been especially tailored to the high demands of industrial communication.
Groundbreaking security concept with security modules
SCALANCE S modules protect automation cells against unauthorized access and unnecessary communication load. Even faults in the external network do not influence data traffic within the automation cell. Communication is protected regardless of the application protocol used.
