Module description
The SEL-3044 SEL Encryption Card provides strong cryptographic security to a variety of communications networks. It protects point-to-point, multi-drop, and many-to-many networks. The SEL-3044 secures all byte oriented serial protocols including popular SCADA or PCS protocols like DNP and MODBUS common to PLC, IED, and RTU products. It quickly integrates into serial communication networks including modem and data radio.
