Full Description

The Deutsche Post (the German postal service) is now using a distributed BACnet data server to connect its facilities all across the country. At present 120 logistics centers are tied into a data processing service center in Frankfurt/Main via modems and public telephone lines. Data from all the facilities is transferred using the BACnet/Point-To-Point (PTP) EIA-232 protocol, then made Internet-accessible via a Web application.
