SMP 16/CP Intelligent Substation Gateway
Setting the Standard
The SMP 16/CP Gateway is the ideal first step in a substation automation
project. As our entry-level solution, it supports redundancy, contains
advanced automation functions and includes strong security features—all in
the same box.
- Supports up to 128 devices, 64 control centers and
10 000 data points per system.
- Advanced architecture reduces component count.
- Optional built-in GPS clock

Setting the Standard in Substation Communications
Cybectec SMP Gateways bridge the gap between substations and the people
who maintain, engineer and plan the future of the enterprise.
- Extract and concentrate data from any device, regardless of protocol
- Send data to SCADA, control centers and enterprise applications
- Automate data processing and device control
- Passthrough to any device
The SMP 16/CP supports all the basic functions of the original SMP
gateway in a new and improved packaging.
With its field-proven software, its 2 Ethernet and 16 universal
RS-232/422/485 serial ports, the SMP 16/CP is a cost-effective
communications processor for projects that do not require the advanced
expansion capabilities of the SMP 16/SG gateway. It is the perfect
first step in any substation automation project.
- Upgrade legacy RTUs - Preserve your investment. Use the SMP
16/CP to connect your existing RTUs to new control centers, using
modern control center protocols.
- Add new IEDs - Use the SMP16/CP to integrate new digital
devices such as protection relays, PLCs or IEDs. Make device data
available to both new control centers and existing legacy control centers.
- Connect to the WAN - Use the SMP 16/CP to integrate both legacy
and modern serial devices into the corporate WAN.
- Perform remote device maintenance and configuration - Use the
SMP 16/CP to remotely access any device's maintenance port.
- Access non-operational data - Use the SMP 16/CP to
automatically retrieve fault, event and disturbance recordings. Provide a
single point of access for non-operational data.
The SMP 16/CP gateway comes with a complete set of Microsoft
Windows® based maintenance and configuration tools. These tools are easy to
use and offer both local and remote access to the SMP configuration,
security settings, log files, communication traces, and system statistics.
The SMP Substation Gateway is
a family of substation-grade intelligent devices designed to integrate both
existing and new RTUs, IEDs, PLCs and control centers into a single
homogeneous automation system.
The SMP 16/CP communications processor provides the following
functions:
- Protocol Translator - Convert standard or proprietary device
protocols to control center protocols such as DNP3, IEC
60870-5-101/103/104 or IEC 61850 (UCA 2.0): one-to-one, one-to-many or
many-to-many.
- Data Concentrator - Collect data from all substation devices,
regardless of protocol, and make it available to control centers and the
local HMI, using LAN, WAN or serial connections.
- Terminal Server / Serial Port Switch - Use the SMP 16/CP to
connect to substation devices for remote maintenance, monitoring and
control.
- Automation Processor - Replace dedicated PLCs and perform local
data processing using the built-in automation functions or the
IEC-6113-compatible Soft PLC.
- Hardware and software redundancy - Group two SMP 16/CP to
provide redundant fail-safe operation. Cybectec’s advanced software also
supports redundant network connections, redundant devices and redundant
control center connections.
The SMP 16/CP communications processor comes with a complete set
of Microsoft Windows®-based maintenance and configuration tools. These tools
are easy to use and offer both local and remote access to the SMP
configuration, security settings, log files, communication traces, and
system statistics.
Provide a Single Point of Access
- Create a homogenous system with a single entry point for each
substation.
- Manage, maintain and configure your substation equipment remotely.
- Extract non-operational data for planning, maintenance, engineering,
and fault analysis.
Upgrade Your Substations without Having to Replace RTUs
- Integrate existing and legacy RTUs, IEDs, PLCs, as well as multiple
control centers.
- The SMP Gateway acts as an interpreter that serves data from any
equipment, to any SCADA or control center.
- Add new network technologies and protocols without sacrificing data or
legacy devices.
- Universal ports let you connect any serial device to any serial port.
Automate! Add Intelligent Controls to Your Substation Equipment
- Create sophisticated automation scripts such as load shedding and
reconnection management, data grouping, and generator control.
- Extend the capabilities of legacy devices with sophisticated functions
such as analog, binary and grouped controls or input latching.
Strengthen Cyber-Security
- Prepare for NERC CIP compliance with the SMP Gateway’s security
features.
- Enforce NERC-compliant password complexity & port control.
- Protect data flows with the SMP Gateway’s built-in firewall and VPN
server.
Work With the Experts
We have been designing and installing substation gateways for decades. 25
years and thousands of installed systems later, our solutions are not only
rugged and reliable, but adapted to our client’s needs. Our SMP Gateway is
both field-proven and operator-proven: it includes user-friendly
configuration tools that take the pain out of upgrading a substation.
You Can Depend On It
Our products are as reliable as they are easy to setup and configure. The
SMP Gateway family comes with Window®-based maintenance and configurations
tools for remote or local access to configuration, settings, logs and
statistics.
