Communication standards
In building control, open communication is important.
It allows easy and secure integration of devices, systems
and functions. Support for multiple open standards en-
sures communication and facilitates efficient engineering.
It also makes system maintenance and interoperability
easier, thereby providing greater in vestment protection.
Siemens supports different communication protocols
in building automation. As a result, a wide range
of communicating devices can be used. They form the
basis for energy-efficient room and building automation.
The standardized and independent communication pro-
tocols are being continuously further developed, and
ensure a consistent, end-to-end exchange of information
between devices and systems – whether BACnet, KNX,
DALI, EnOcean or LW communication.
