Connect Every System.
Empower Every Decision.
CONNECT unifies operational data from wide variety
of industrial technologies and devices, enabling seamless
communication across systems.
Data is Often Spread Across
Disconnected Systems
Organizations rely on a wide variety of technologies, equipment, and
software platforms to run their operations. From control systems and connected
devices to reporting and business applications, these systems often operate
independently using different communication protocols; making it difficult
to achieve a unified view of operations.

Connecting Industrial Systems for
More Than 25 Years
Organizations depend on reliable access to information
from the systems that support their operations. As technologies evolve,
integration platforms must evolve with them.
25+
For more than 25 years, CONNECT
has provided reliable communication between operational technologies, applications, databases, and
enterprise systems.
Years of Reliable Industrial Connectivity
Designed for continuous operation, CONNECT delivers dependable 24/7 performance while supporting the real-time exchange of critical operational data.
Built for continuous 24/7 operation across demanding industrial environments.
Throughout that time, the platform has continued to expand its integration capabilities to support new technologies and communication requirement; providing organizations with a robust and trusted platform for long-term operational connectivity.

24/7 OPERATION
Designed for continuous operation in demanding industrial environments

RELIABLE DATA EXCHANGE
Consistent, dependable communication you
can count on

REAL-TIME CONNECTIVITY
Enables real-time data flow so you can monitor, respond, and optimize with confidence

20+ DATALINKS
Broad connectivity across technologies, protocols, and industry standards
Today, CONNECT includes more than 20 DataLinks that provide
connectivity to a wide variety of devices, applications, databases, and
software platforms. These DataLinks support numerous communication protocols,
industry standards, and vendor-specific technologies enabling information to
be exchanged across disparate systems.
Real-Time Data Connectivity
CONNECT integrates process data from among a diverse set of
industrial technologies and devices by connecting and transporting information
between them, enabling data to move seamlessly across an organization.
With CONNECT, data is integrated from a wide variety of
industrial technologies, equipment, devices and software platforms.
By supporting numerous communication protocols and industry standards
across different vendors and product lines, CONNECT provides
broad compatibility within complex environments.

By enabling communication between previously
isolated technologies, CONNECT helps organizations reduce data silos,
improve visibility, and maintain alignment across their operations.
Powerful DataLinks for Seamless System Communication
DataLinks provide the communication channels between CONNECT
and the devices, applications, databases, and systems that support your operations.
Each DataLink is designed to enable reliable data exchange with specific technologies,
protocols, or software platforms. The following DataLinks are included with
CONNECT. Additional DataLinks are also available to support a
broader range of integration requirements.
Allen-Bradley
Communicate directly with
Allen-Bradley PLCs without the need for a 3rd party OPC server.
Annunciation
Generate audio output, including text-to-speech, through the PC's speakers or a compatible VoiP system.

Collection DataLink
Allows the creation of, and reading from, an internal collection of values. When used in combination with other DataLinks, this simplifies implementation of round-robin style data collection systems.
Database
Enables connectivity to a wide
range of database platforms, including Oracle MySQL, Microsoft SQL server, Microsoft Access and Excel
or any ODBC or OLE DB
compliant database.

.NET
Provides an interface to call methods or read and write properties from or to any Microsoft .NET assembly.

Ethernet/Serial
Allows the configuration of a flexible Ethernet or serial communication protocol for sending and receiving data from or to a remote device or application. This DataLink is configured manually, specifying the packet parameters for both incoming and outgoing data.

File Processing
Enables reading and writing to files on the local operating system or a network storage drive. Processed files can then be archived or deleted.

File Transfer
Handles file management tasks, like copying files, deleting files or downloading files via FTP.

IBM
WebSphere MQ
Makes it possible to interact with IBM’s Websphere MQ software package, reading and writing data to and from the queues as needed.
Sends and receives emails from any SMTP, POP, MAPI or IMAP compliant email server. This includes web hosted services such as Gmail, Yahoo and Outlook.com.
Microsoft
Message Queuing
Creates the interface to Microsoft’s Message Queueing (MSMQ) application, making it possible to read and write data between MSMQ and CONNECT [DTU].

Modbus
Allows communication with Modbus based devices, including a variety of popular industrial PLCs across a range of brands.

OPC
Provides standards compliant connection to read and write data to OPC servers via OPC DA 2.0+ and OPC UA.

OSI PI
OSI PI is an HMI and historian for plant floor systems. The OSI PI DataLink, combined with the OSI PI data server, make it possible to read both current and historical values out of the OSI PI application.
