Figure 2-4 SIPROTEC 5 Compact – Functional Integration – Communication
SIPROTEC 5 Compact devices are equipped with high-performance communication interfaces. These are inte-
grated interfaces to provide a high level of security and flexibility. The interface is independent of the protocol
used. This can be loaded according to the application.
Particular importance was given to the realization of full communication redundancy:
•
Ethernet-based protocols (for example, Modbus TCP, IEC 61850 Ed1 and Ed2)
•
IoT interface via GridEdge for integration in cloud systems such as MindSphere
•
PRP and HSR uninterruptible Ethernet redundancy protocols (seamless redundancy), in particular for
high-availability station communication, as well as RSTP and point-to-point communication.
Communication Interfaces of the Device
The protection device features a redundant optical Ethernet interface on the rear panel.
Ethernet Interface
The Ethernet interface is used for Ethernet-based protocol applications, for example, IEC 61850, Modbus TCP,
time synchronization via SNTP, DIGSI 5 via TCP etc. Several applications can run in parallel, whereby unused
applications can be switched off for security reasons.
Optical Ethernet Interface
The optical Ethernet interface has 2 optical duplex LC 1300-nm interfaces. It can be configured with or
without an integrated switch. The maximum optically permitted distance via 50/125-µm or 62.5/125-µm
multimode optical fibers is 2 km. The optical transmission and receiving level is measured in the module and
can be displayed with DIGSI 5.
