Communication Network Solutions for Smart Grids

8.2 Communication Network Solutions for Transmission Grids (Communication Backbone)


Bridge to IP IP functionality is best suited for the migration from TDM to packet-switched networks. PowerLink offers electrical and optical Ethernet interfaces, including an integrated L2 switch, extending the IP network to remote substations with a bit rate up to 320 kbps. Optimal data throughput under changing environmental conditions PowerLink adapts the data rate to changes in ambient conditions, thus guaranteeing maximum data throughput. Thanks to PowerLinks integral prioritization function, which can be congured for each channel, routing of the most important channels is assured even in poor weather conditions. Variable transmission power The transmission power can be congured via software in two ranges (20 50 W or 40 100 W), based on the requirements of the transmission path. This makes it easy to comply with national regulations and to enable optimized frequency planning. Maximum efciency: The integrated, versatile multiplexer (vMUX) A large number of conventional communication interfaces today (e.g., a/b telephone, V.24, X.21, etc.) and in the foreseeable future must be operated in a switching station. For this purpose, PowerLink uses an integrated versatile multiplexer that
