Siemens SCALANCE W700 Industrial WLAN Access Point
The Siemens SCALANCE W700 is a family of industrial IEEE 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5) WLAN access points engineered for reliable wireless PROFINET and Industrial Ethernet communication in harsh factory and process environments. The W700 operates in dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz mode, delivering up to 300 Mbps throughput with support for up to 16 simultaneous clients per access point, and its industrial-grade IP65 aluminium housing with M12 connector options withstands vibration, dust, and humidity found in Saudi Arabia's automated manufacturing and process facilities. DIN-rail and wall-mount variants fit directly into standard industrial panels.
The SCALANCE W700's defining industrial capability is iPCF (industrial Point Coordination Function) — Siemens' proprietary deterministic WLAN protocol providing guaranteed channel access with AGV roaming handover times below 50 ms between access points. This enables wireless PROFINET to moving targets such as AGVs, overhead cranes, and mobile operator panels without dropouts during handover — the critical limitation of standard Wi-Fi in real-time automation applications. WPA2 Enterprise with IEEE 802.1X authentication and AES-256 encryption meets IEC 62443 cybersecurity requirements, mandated by Saudi Aramco's CSAI cybersecurity framework for OT wireless connectivity.
In Saudi Arabia, the SCALANCE W700 KSA is deployed in automated warehouse and logistics facilities at NEOM, Aramco, and Saudi Postal's e-commerce fulfilment operations, where hundreds of AGV vehicles require reliable wireless PROFINET across large floor areas. Port crane wireless communication at Jubail and Dammam replaces exposed festoon cables requiring frequent replacement. Process plant mobile operator terminal access at Aramco and SABIC enables field engineers to access WinCC process graphics remotely without cabled infrastructure in classified areas.
Razz Middle East designs and supplies industrial WLAN infrastructure for Saudi automation projects, including RF site surveys, SCALANCE W700 deployment, iPCF configuration, and IEC 62443 security hardening.

Key Features & Benefits
- iPCF protocol provides deterministic channel access with AGV roaming handover below 50 ms between access points, enabling reliable wireless PROFINET to moving automation equipment without the dropouts of standard Wi-Fi CSMA/CA.
- IEEE 802.11ac dual-band delivers up to 300 Mbps with automatic band steering, allowing PROFINET real-time data and bulk diagnostic transfer to coexist without interference on the same wireless infrastructure.
- WPA2 Enterprise with IEEE 802.1X and AES-256 encryption meets IEC 62443 Security Level 2, satisfying Saudi Aramco CSAI cybersecurity framework requirements for OT wireless network access.
- IP65 aluminium housing with M12 IP67 connectors withstands vibration, dust, chemical vapours, and water splash in Saudi manufacturing, port, and process environments where commercial Wi-Fi hardware fails rapidly.
- PROFINET over WLAN allows wireless mobile operator panels and AGVs to communicate with SIMATIC S7 PLCs using standard PROFINET protocols, maintaining full TIA Portal diagnostics over Wi-Fi.
- SINEMA Remote Connect integration enables secure VPN tunnelling for remote maintenance access to industrial networks at Saudi remote facilities, complying with IEC 62443 remote access security requirements.
- Centralised SINEMA Network Manager monitoring provides signal strength, client connection, and security event reporting across all SCALANCE W700 nodes — essential for large-scale wireless networks in Saudi mega-project facilities.
Industrial Applications in Saudi Arabia
- AGV fleet wireless PROFINET at NEOM logistics hub, Riyadh e-commerce fulfilment centres, and Saudi Postal SPL sorting centres, where iPCF ensures sub-50 ms handover across large warehouse floor areas.
- Overhead crane and spreader wireless communication at Jubail, Dammam, and Jeddah container terminals, replacing festoon cable systems with high mechanical maintenance costs.
- Mobile operator terminal access to SIMATIC WinCC SCADA at Saudi Aramco upstream Eastern Province facilities, where field engineers access process graphics on tablets via secure WLAN.
- Rail-guided vehicle (RGV) communication in SABIC and Aramco petrochemical warehouses, where iPCF ensures uninterrupted PROFINET during high-speed position changes along multi-hundred-metre storage rows.
- Assembly line machine data wireless collection at Vision 2030 manufacturing facilities in NEOM's industrial zone, connecting production data from moving fixtures to the MES without cable infrastructure.
- Outdoor perimeter security and asset tracking wireless backbone at Jubail Industrial City and MARAFIQ utility substations, where IP65 rating handles coastal humidity and high UV exposure.
- Process plant remote diagnostics at SWCC desalination facilities, where SCALANCE W700 provides the industrial-grade wireless link for SIMATIC S7 maintenance access without new cable infrastructure in classified pump areas.
