Modbus to IEC 61850 Substation Gateway
This Rugged Industrial Gateway is a high-performance communication system specifically engineered for power automation. Built on a custom x86 embedded architecture, it bridges the gap between traditional Modbus-enabled RTUs, IEDs, or power meters and modern substation automation systems based on the IEC 61850 standard, supporting high-density integration of up to 10,000 datapoints.
Enterprise Substation Features
- High-Capacity Integration: Scalable support for 5,000 to 10,000 datapoints for large-scale bay monitoring.
- MMS Support: Full Manufacturing Message Specification support for vertical integration with Substation SCADA.
- GOOSE Messaging: High-speed peer-to-peer horizontal communication for interlocking and protection signals.
- SCL Toolset: Robust handling of Substation Configuration Language (SCL) files including SCD, CID, and IID.
- Industrial Grade Hardware: Ruggedized x86-based box PC designed for superior EMI/EMC immunity in high-voltage environments.
