IEC61850 protocol converter plays its own advantages in various fields of work, especially in the work of information conversion, which ensures the continuous and stable output of data information and provides more convenient services for our daily life and infrastructure.

Before the advent of IEC61850 protocol converter, China's power industry enterprises used the conventional converter, which is based on a circular telecontrol protocol. This mode of work is difficult to meet the growing power industry and market demand, often with a long conversion time and no real-time performance. Protocol converter overcomes the shortcomings of previous converters and uses modern technology The 61850 protocol converter with high performance price ratio should first have the characteristics of high real-time performance.

Compatibility is an important factor to measure protocol converter. The compatibility of protocol converter can be divided into two aspects: one is to be compatible with various types of systems, the other is to be compatible with different hardware facilities, and at the same time, the compatibility brought by different interface forms such as keyboard and mouse should be taken into account.

Some connecting tools of IEC61850 protocol conversion module on the market are ordinary cables, so the signal transmission performance and cable quality are different, and the price is certainly different. We should buy them according to our own needs and budget, and pay attention to these details when purchasing. Secondly, the scalability of protocol converter is also important, because the popularity of the network will inevitably lead to the increase of host devices, and some devices can not achieve cascading function, which requires the use of IEC61850 protocol converter supporting cascading.
