NPort S9000 series serial device server enables power SCADA to monitor both Ethernet devices and serial devices via MMS protocol
MMS Interoperability
The NPort S9000 device servers can network existing Modbus and DNP3 IEDs for serial data communications. It can also converge the IEDs’ status into one network, reporting to the SCADA system through MMS messaging.
Through the NPort S9000, station operators can simplify the management of power SCADA systems to monitor all the Ethernet-based switches, controllers, computers, device servers, and even the serial IEDs through unified MMS communication.
Under the standard IEC 61850 MMS protocol, the NPort S9000 not only simplifies SCADA supervision, it also transforms the whole network into a vendor-independent architecture that can collaborate with any IEC 61850 compatible device for easy replacement and maintenance.
