The IP500 Alliance with seat in Berlin is an international organization of manufacturers of products and systems for the building automation (e.g. Bosch, Honeywell, Siemens, OMRON, TOYOTA TSUSHO, in addition, medium-size enterprises), of system integrators as well as of operators of buildings and industrial plants. A goal of the IP500 Alliance is it to define with the IP500 communication platform a wireless (Wireless), manufacturer-neutral and safe data transfer for large buildings to develop and make available for it a “turn key module”. The Alliance was created 2007 in Berlin from OEM´s as Interest Group and could win numerous international cooperation partners, among other things enterprises such as TÜV Rhineland, EBV or VARTA. Since 2011 the IP500® Alliance is an official “None profit” organization, on the basis of a registered association (e.V. after German law). == Technology == The IP500 platform is available as Wireless module (IP500 Solution). The IP500 solution fulfills all technical facilities for a safe, interoperable and trade-spreading networking of smart products and devices for all ranges in the building automation. For the interoperability, which is needed for manufacturer and trade-spreading interaction of the components in a comprehensive building automation, the IP500 solution on basis provides more central, generally imported and accepted industrial standards and standards (e. g. IEEE 802.15.4 for the Wireless chip; IPv6/6LoWPAN; AES128, IPsec in the software network stack; as well as BACnet in the application Layer. The IP500 solution is available today to all IP500 alliance members. The IP500 solution is the only standard, which is particularly for safety-relevant applications, as smoke, break-down or evacuation developed and which fulfills the necessary international rules (e.g. after EN and VdS) supports. With that fact it guarantees that products and electronic devices in safety-relevant applications can communicate and be steered such as fire protection, break-down or admission via a safe, wireless network with one another. The manufacturers of such products and systems can use the IP500 solution as a before-certified communication solution. The IP500 solution is available as platform as module with two a chip solution – those are very robust and efficient wireless chip with a high performance, but very economical Micro controller. In addition comes the extremely energy-saving and flexible software network stack (based on a very flexible and secures meshing of the Net) and custom-made network services for the entire network (incl. access points and router). The IP500 solution as module is extremely small and can easily be integrated in sensors, actuators and other smart devices. The software (Network services) serves for the organization of the IP500 of the complete system. By flexible gateway software the network services provide for a very scalable and redundant behavior in wireless networks and for a transparent integration in existing (also proprietary) systems. At the same time they offer a set of management and reporting tools for maintenance and controlling of the IP500 of network. Operational areas of the IP500 solution in products and systems are beside trade real estate, industrial plants, sports facilities and administration buildings increasingly also Smart Home solutions. The IP500 Alliance expects the fact that with the Internet of the things (M2M Communication) and the developments in the context of industry 4,0 the availability of highly efficient wireless nets will increase and increases sensors and actuators as basis of innovative solutions for an intelligent building automation is world-wide used. A globalization of the IP500 standard is already realized by representatives in the USA, India and Asia (Japan). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「IP500 Alliance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
