Siemens Connect Box Bedienungsanleitung
Connect Box
CWG.BOX-A, CWG.BOX-NA, CWG.BOX-EU
The Connect Box is a simple, universal, and open IoT solution to connect and
monitor small and medium-sized buildings
● Connects equipment from buildings via plug & play: IoT sensors, meters, heating,
air conditioning, air handling systems, building management systems (BMS).
● Easy and quick to install: Accessible for all. If the building already has a BMS, the
device connects to the main bus as the third party. If there is no BMS, a BMS
network is directly created by the device.
● Telemetry and controls: Collects data and controls equipment.
● Smart converter: Unifies various field communication protocols on one device.
● Web-connected: Automatically connects to the cloud via 3G/4G or ethernet cable.
● Powerful IoT device: Combines the essential functionality of a gateway, a PLC, a
modem, and an edge device.

Functions
The goal of the Connect Box is to radically lower the effort, investment, and complexity
involved to integrate devices to a common system and retrofit additional functionality to
optimize the building.
● Plug-and-play installation by installers such as electricians
● Library of over 500 field devices ready to connect
● Smart converter of 11 communication protocols, both standard and proprietary, wired
and radio
● Default data retrieval at 10-minutes intervals (excluding IoT-sensors that have their own
frequencies to minimize battery consumption). Commands (downlink) are sent instantly.
● Local or cloud connectivity via 4G IP, field bus
● Over-the-air updates via 4G
● Local IoT private network based on LoRa
● Powerful integration up to third-party applications
● Full-service, no networking skills required thanks to 4G cloud connectivity
● BMS essentials included in the user console on connectbox.siemens.com
● Public API management and documentation
The offering consists of a hardware component - the Connect Box - and a software
component, either the cloud license or the on-premise license. Depending on the customer
use case, the appropriate software component needs to be selected. Both versions use the
IoT Platform in the back-end and the user console as a central interface to activate, manage,
and configure the device.
With the Connect Box cloud license, data can either be sent to a server by API Restful or
MQTT (connection with LAN or 4G, SIM card is provided and pre-mounted), or be converted
locally to BACnet IP or Modbus IP. Configuration, pairing of equipment, and selection of
properties are done remotely on our web platform (console of configuration). Functionalities
such as graphs, alarms, and synoptics are included in the box license. The 4G SIM card
subscription is also included in the license.

With the Connect Box on-premise license, data can either be sent to a server by MQTT
(default connection via IP / LAN) or be converted to BACnet IP or Modbus IP. Configuration,
pairing of equipment, and selection of properties are carried out remotely on our web
platform (console of configuration) thanks to a provided 4G SIM card used only for
configuration. Remote management and configuration is offered for the first 3 years.
Alternatively, it can be configured remotely without additional cost using a LAN connection.
