I/O, alarms, and users, handle scheduling and
logging, and communicate using a variety of
protocols. Because of this, most parts of the
system function autonomously and continue to run

SmartStruxure servers or devices go offline.

Variety of connectivity options

AS-P has numerous ports that enable it to
communicate with a wide range of protocols,
devices, and servers.

AS-P has the following ports:

• Two 10/100 Ethernet ports

• Two RS-485 ports
• One LonWorks TP/FT port
• One built-in I/O bus port
• One USB host port

SSL Certificates
Communication between clients and the
SmartStruxure servers can be encrypted using
Secure Socket Layer (SSL 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, and TLS
1.0). The servers ship with a default self-signed
certificate. Commercial Certification Authority (CA)
server certificates are supported to lower the risk of
malicious information technology attacks. Use of
encrypted communication can be enforced for both
WorkStation and WebStation access.

Supported protocols
• IP addressing (IPv6 ready)
• TCP communications

Internal configuration The I/O bus in the terminal base provides the AS-P
module with power and an address.
All serial communication ports of the AS-P module
refer to signal ground as shown in the figure below. The address value in the I/O bus is increased by
one for each terminal base. The I/O bus also
enables RS-485 communication between the I/O
module and the SmartStruxure server device.
