Each automation cell is protected through a security communication processor (for example,
SIMATIC CP 1543-1) or an Industrial Security Appliance (for example, SCALANCE SC646-
2C).
Benefits
● Extremely high reliability through redundant coupling of the networks
● High data throughput through 10 Gbps technology of the SCALANCE XR552-12M used
in the production network
● Separation of networks through a firewall
