The next step toward the future
Due to the rising need for addresses in
devices that use Internet Protocol (IP)
communications, such as sensors, smart
phones, tablet PCs and servers, the number
of available IPv4 addresses is close to run-
ning out. With only a few IPv4 addresses
remaining worldwide, an IPv6 address
will be required to reach many devices in
the future. Migrating to IPv6 is therefore
unavoidable. The German Federal Ministry
of the Interior has already published an
IPv6 migration guideline for public
administrations.
The Desigo™ building automation system
gives you a head start since it is the first
system to support IPv6 for data transmis-
sion. The Desigo PXG3.. router is the first
BACnet/IPv6 device for exchanging data
in building automation. This gets you
ready for the future – even where your
existing installations are concerned.
By using the Desigo PXG3.. router, these
installations can be upgraded to BACnet/
IPv6 without any rewiring.
New guidelines, communication
standards and operating systems
require action to be taken in
building automation. Desigo is an
intelligent building automation
system that is fully prepared
to meet the latest requirements
and protects your investments over
the long term.
