Hello The type of link depends on the Speed of connection required and topography of the area. 1. If it is possible to lay a physical cable, The fastest and the most reliable link is to connect the two using a Monomode Fiber Optic Cable. You can use Ethernet Switches line XB004-1LD or PROFIBUS Optical Link Modules like OLM G11-1300 to connect the two. 2. If "Line of Sight" is available ( I.e. the is no physical obstruction like Mountains , Tall Buildings Between the two sites ), You can also use point to point Ethernet Radios. These provide an easy and free connectivity ( You may require a license in some countries ). You may need to install Towers at both ends so that the two radios are visible to each other. There are several manufacturers of these radios. We have once used radios from http://www.bridgewave.com/ 3. You can go in for GPRS Modems for M2M Connectivity. You can have GPRS routers at both ends with Static IP. Check out : Getting Started with Industrial Remote Communication Hope this helps Cheers

Hello, Although I like solution presented by Navnag using FO network, but also in some applications, laying 5km FO may not decision of project manager. It may need approvals from government. So, please have a look on the following application for wireless communication. The Application example is made for S7-300 but it also suitable for S7-400.
