The SMP Substation Gateway is a substation-grade gateway designed to integrate both existing and new RTUs, IEDs, PLCs and control centers into a single homogeneous automation system.

The SMP 4-20/8-40 gateway provides the following functions:

• Protocol Translator - Convert standard or proprietary device protocols to control center protocols such as DNP3, TEJAS, 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 to connect to any substation device for remote maintenance, monitoring and control.
• Automation Processor - Perform local data processing using the built-in automation functions or the IEC-61131 compatible Soft PLC.

The SMP 4-20/8-40  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.

With its advanced functions, the SMP 4-20/8-40  provides a cost effective first step in any substation automation project:

• Upgrade legacy RTUs - Preserve your investment. Use the SMP to connect your existing RTUs to new control centers, using modern control center protocols.
• Add new IEDs - Use the SMP 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 to integrate both legacy and modern serial devices into the corporate WAN.
• Perform remote device maintenance and configuration - Use the SMP to remotely access any device's maintenance port.
• Access non-operational data - Use the SMP to automatically retrieve fault, event and disturbance recordings. Provide a single point of access for non-operational data.

Cybectec's SMP is the field-proven solution to building a modern automation system, in a Step-by-Step manner, with minimal risk and substation downtime.
