Using the newly developed Scalance MUM856-1, industrial applications such as machines, control elements and other devices can be accessed remotely via a public 5G network, providing a simple, high-performance remote access option. The Sinema Remote Connect management platform for VPN connections can be used to provide easy and secure access to these remote plants or machines—even if they're integrated in other networks. The device also supports 4G, so that operation is possible even if a 5G mobile network isn't available.
