SYNC4000
Control Center Frontend

SYNC 4000 is a high end control center front end gateway, with protocol conversion, application virtualization, and front end processing capabilities like Wide Area Monitoring, SCADA/DMS data aggregation, all built into one device.

Wide area monitoring front end having Synchrophasor data concentrator (PDC) can stream data from any IEEE C37.118 compliant phasor measurement unit to multiple control central applications. Data Aggregation variant have high-end Control Center gateway with protocol drivers and M2M Services, IEC61131-3 based advanced PLC engine and other FEP functionalities built in one device. This product can be used to interconnect automation system (SCADA/ EMS/ DMS) LAN to WAN networks like MPLS/Cellular/Public Lease line without compromising on the communication security.

SYNC 4000 enables communication between SCADA/EMS/ DMS and remote devices even when the upstream, downstream communication protocols are different.not the same. Available SYNC 4000 protocol drivers communicate with remote field devices and provide data via communication protocols supported by SCADA/EMS/DMS. SYNC 4000 creates a trusted network of widely distributed automation components like PLC, RTUs, transformer monitoring units, RMU automation units, and capacitor bank control units. The security is guaranteed through a Virtual Private Network (VPN) created from site location to control center using SSL/TLS. Devices are available with hardware options including input/outputs, multiple Ethernet and Serial ports.

Synchrophasor measurement has been gaining acceptance in power system operations and is being widely adopted in many power systems. A wide variety of devices now support synchrophasors, from stand-alone Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs), to protection relays, meters, fault recorders and other substation devices.With the standardization of synchrophasor communications by IEEE C37.118, utilities can now select best-of-breed equipment from various vendors, and integrate them into their applications. SYNC 4000 PDC can concentrate the streams, time align, and the processed data can be streamed to Wide Area Monitoring Applications.
