Real-time communication via 5G with Profinet
Thanks to the VXLAN transmission technology, the Profinet IO protocol can be used for communication over a private 5G network. This enables real-time communication and the use of a central control system for several mobile participants.
Industrial 5G at the Hannover Messe
At the booth in Hall 9,
Siemens will also be showcasing the connection of automated guided vehicles via
5G in a prototype of a private industrial standalone 5G network. Mobile
participants in production facilities, such as Automated guided vehicles (AGVs)
in intralogistics and mobile robots increase flexibility in production and
require reliable wireless communication for smooth and safe operation.
With the Scalance MUM853-1,
Siemens is exhibiting its industrial 5G router for the control cabinet at the
trade fair. The device connects local industrial applications with public 5G
and 4G (LTE) mobile networks. With the router, plants, machines, controls and
other industrial devices can be monitored and maintained remotely via a public
mobile network at high data rates. In addition, the device can be integrated
into private 5G networks. The Scalance MUM853-1 thus enables trend-setting
applications such as mobile robots in production or autonomous vehicles in
logistics.
First tests in the private 5G test field at the trade fair
Deutsche Messe and Siemens are
giving all companies access to innovative Industrial 5G technology at the
"5G Smart Venue" in Hanover. Companies can test their applications in
a prototype of a private Industrial 5G standalone test network based on Release
15. This is an industrial 5G network that uses the spectrum for campus networks
available in Germany (3.7 – 3.8 GHz band). The first companies are already
testing the network, for example the industrial ICT company HMS Networks has
integrated sensors into the infrastructure via a controller and a 5G router.
"The integration of our devices into the Siemens network was very
easy," says Dr. Jens Jakobsen, Head of Development at HMS Labs. Frank
Hakemeyer, Director Communication Interfaces at Phoenix Contact, adds:
"Within Siemens' private 5G network, we will be demonstrating at the
Hannover Messe how our industrial 5G router can now also transmit
security-relevant signals via mobile communications. Commissioning our 5G
router within the Siemens network was particularly easy."
Siemens is developing its own
5G ecosystem, which consists of a 5G infrastructure for private 5G networks and
end devices. The 5G infrastructure is still under development and will be
available in 2023.
