Catalog 9e

The SMG system is designed for the transmission of digital, serial data, as generally typical in data communications networks, as well as also for the transmission of video signals. Special transceivers (transmit/receive devices) with interface modules for all common bus systems prepare the digital, serial signals for transmission by means of frequency modulation.

For full-duplex transmission of the usable signals, two carrier frequencies in a range around 2.4 GHz are available. A specially shaped aluminum extruded profile (slotted hollow conductor) between the transceivers is used as the transmission medium.

Through the transparent layout, as well as the support of numerous data protocols, the SMG system can be integrated into existing bus systems without a problem. If needed, for this purpose VAHLE also provides suitable engineering services.
Following special features distinguish the SMG transmission technique:

  • Immunity to interference due to isolation of the SMG profile from the surroundings.
  • Maintenance-free due to contactless transmission technology.
  • Common assembly of the SMG profile with all VAHLE current conductors, Powerail conductors and the CPS system.
  • Error-free transmission of high data rates up to 10 Mbit/s.
  • Simultaneous transmission of up to six data channels full duplex.
  • Transmission paths of up to 1000 m without intermediate amplification due to high dynamic response of transceivers.
  • Simple adaptation to the customer's computer peripherals, as well as good expansion possibilities due to modular device construction.
  • EMERGENCY-OFF transmission according to stop category 1, safety level 3.
  • Coupling of several mobile subscribers to one SMG profile.
  • Transmission independent of traveling speed of mobile subscriber.
  • No negative effects on transmission quality due to environmental influences, e.g., temperature, humidity, clouds, dust, etc.
  • Also suiable for tracks with curves, breaks and switchpoints.
The SMG data transmission system provides many interfaces for the most common bus systems (RS 232 C, RS 422/485, Ethernet, Allen-Bradley Data Highway Plus, Allen-Bradley remote I/O, GE Genius, and many more) as well as special interfaces for video, audio, control signal and emergency shutdown transmission. All interfaces are formed as plug-in modules and thus can be easily adapted to the existing communications structure.
