Abstract
The invention relates to a communication module for transmitting data between at least one hardware component which is integrated into an internal network of a technical system and a back-end computer system which is connected to a packet-switched data network. The communication module has a device-proximal gateway and a network-proximal gateway, which are connected to one another via a point-to-point connection without intermediate stations. The network-proximal gateway provides a data transmission interface between the packet-switched data network and the point-to-point connection and the device-proximal gateway provides a data transmission interface between the point-to-point connection and the internal network.
