Why Industrial Ethernet Makes Sense for OEMs

Oct 20th, 2015

我们挑战的复杂性和局限性ing multiple traditional fieldbuses inside their machines, many OEMs have switched to industrial Ethernet. But can one single standard provide robust, deterministic communications for all needs? That’s what David Greenfield, Director of Content, asks Sari Germanos of the Ethernet Powerlink Standardization Group (EPSG) in thisAutomation Worldvideo interview. Watch it to hear Germanos make a strong case for industrial Ethernet benefits including its relative simplicity, greater bandwidth, faster response times, and longer network distances.
