Softing uaGate SI

Softing uaGate SI embedded OPC UA Server Gateway for Siemens PLCs. Access to Siemens PLC Data from OPC UA Applications

Embedded OPC UA Server Gateway for Siemens PLCs dataFEED uaGate SI is a gateway to Siemens PLCs that can be integrated into new or existing plants and provides OPC UA Server functionality. It allows the implementation of easy and secure data connectivity with higher-level management systems, such as ERP, MES or SCADA. Softing uaGate SI combines a compact size with industry-proven hardware.

uaGate SI makes data integration easier than ever before. The gateway supports the connection of SIMATIC S7-300, S7-400, S7-1200 and S7-1500 controllers from Siemens and uses the OPC UA standard for a simple and secure data integration of new and existing plants in higher-level management systems, such as ERP, MES or SCADA systems.

In addition, uaGate SI also offers MQTT Publisher functionality, enabling direct integration of PLC data into private or public IoT cloud applications on the IT side. The generic MQTT implementation supports the use of a large number of different cloud providers. Similar to the OPC UA standard, MQTT also supports various security mechanisms such as encrypted connections, certificates and user authentication, thus contributing to a high level of data security. With this functionality, uaGate SI is a compact, secure, future-oriented and proven gateway for data integration
