ABB INNIS11Key features
High-performance communication: Supports multiple communication protocols to ensure compatibility with various devices and systems.
Modular design: Single-board structure, occupies one standard module installation unit slot, easy system integration and maintenance.
Works with NPM modules: Works with the network processing module (NPM) to enable communication between the node and the Infi-NET network.
Supports redundant configuration: Can be used with redundant NPM modules to enhance system reliability and fault tolerance.
System collaboration
- Integration with ABB control systems:
Seamlessly connect to AC 800M controllers, configure IEC 61850 models and data points through Control Builder to achieve substation automation (SAV/CILO).
Support ABB Ability platform to upload device data to the cloud for predictive maintenance analysis.
2. Cross-platform communication:
Connect to third-party SCADA such as Wonderware, Ignition, or collaborate with ABB 800xA system through OPC UA.
3. Redundant network architecture:
Dual RJ45 interfaces support PRP/HSR, achieve seamless switching in smart grids, and ensure zero packet loss of key control instructions.
- Security compliance:
TLS encryption and hardware firewall protect data integrity and meet NERC CIP (North American Electric Reliability Standard) requirements.


Typical cooperation cases
The Texas power grid in the United States uses INNIS11 to implement 50 intervals of ABB IEC 61850 GOOSE communication, shortening the protection action time to 2 ms.
The Ørsted wind farm in Denmark integrates the wind turbine controller and the onshore dispatch center through the ABB INNIS11 redundant network to improve data transmission reliability.
The German Volkswagen Group uses the OPC UA function of ABB INNIS11 to connect AGV robots (Modbus TCP) and MES systems to optimize production rhythm.
Enbridge in Canada deploys ABB INNIS11 encrypted communication to transmit pressure and flow data to the central control room in real time to prevent network attacks.
