Option 2
The Digital Gateway is connected to Switchgear Control Network providing facility to connect
additional Digital Gateway and other system tools and components (e.g. CMES Edge, Web
browser, Time Server, configuration tool, etc.). A network switch must be installed in the
plant. All network components are connected to the switch with standard CAT5 / CAT6 patch
cable.
Figure 14 Network connection of Digital Gateway and CMES Edge
It is recommended that a managed network switch is used to connect the Digital
Gateway to the PCS or PLC. The switch may be delivered together with the switch-
board depending on project scope definition.
To ensure proper system performance following design rules shall be obeyed:
•
Not more than 2 MView (optional) shall be connect to one Digital Gateway at the
same time.
•
If many Digital Gateway are connected to the same network, then network per-
formance slows down. In such a case the network shall be split into different
LAN segments (e.g. VLANs – can be configured in managed switches).
