ipConv Universal Communication Gateway ipConv is an universal communication gateway for data transmission between different protocols. As a system for protocol conversion, it is suitable for coupling heterogeneous controllers, fieldbus devices, and telecontrol systems. Available with powerful high-end devices, ipConv is suitable for demanding large-scale projects: The system is able to process up to 400,000 node variables and transmit up to 40,000 information changes per second. The multitude of communication interfaces available complete the flexibility and expandability of the system. • • • • • • • • Security at the highest level (see Cyber Security) Communication between multiple data sources Simultaneous use of diverse protocols No programming required for configuration (see Configuration) Simple control unit connection Intelligent information processing Maintenance free operation Redundancy FUNCTIONAL RANGE • Configuration Configuration and maintenance of the system is conducted through the integrated web interface, which provides central access to all settings and services. Microsoft® Excel templates are provided to simplify data point configuration. In addition, the web interface enables the import of files and updates, such as • • • • Firmware (application and operating system) Excel configuration spreadsheet (signal table) X.509 certificates License files • Cyber Security • • • • • • • • • • Secure access to all administrative services (HTTPS, SSH, SFTP) Role-based access protection with login and password User administration for local users Central user administration via Active Directory (LDAP) and/or RADIUS Crypto Store for certificate management Creation of self-signed certificates and Certificate Signing Requests (CSRs) Import and export of certificates Configuration of VPN tunnels (OpenVPN and IPsec) Firewall Safeguarded real-time Linux operating system • Data processing • SUPPORTED PROTOCOLS • • • • • • • • • • • • OPC UA OPC DAXML IEC 60870-5-104 IEC 60870-5-101 IEC 60870-5-103 DNP 3.0 IEC 61850 TASE.2 / ICCP ELCOM-90 Modbus PROFIBUS PROFINET Further protocols on request!

A quality identifier and - if necessary - a time stamp is associated with each information item. Namespace and data model can be changed as desired. Powerful functions for data processing such as type conversion, scaling, grouping, etc. Data reduction / regulation of bandwidth, required on secondary side, via update intervals, threshold values, old/new comparison, collective messages, selection of data points, etc. • Network features • • • • • • • • Assigning multiple IP addresses to one physical Ethernet interface Net

THE HARDWARE ipConv is currently available with the following hardware models: The IPC191V4 19" 1HE industrial PC is the costeffective hardware model from the ipConv portfolio that offers significantly higher performance and greater flexibility than the embedded solutions. It has up to 13 LAN interfaces and can be equipped with up to 32 serial RS-232 interfaces. Two PCIe expansion slots enable further extension of the basic system. The IPC191I7 19" 1HE industrial PC is currently the most powerful gateway platform supplied with a real-time Linux operating system. It can also be equipped with...
