Communication equipment
Application
Ethernet switches connect, bridge or extend the network on the highest levels of control systems:
Unmanaged switches are used for simple communication tasks, for example between a PLC and an operator station.
Managed switches are necessary to create redundant networks or Ethernet-based fieldbuses, such as ProfiNet or Ethernet IP.
Fieldbus equipment connect, bridge or extend the network to the I/O-system and instrumentation:
Couplers connect different fieldbuses.
Media converters and links bridges a copper network to an optical network or vice versa.
Repeaters extend the fieldbus.
Gateways connect a fieldbus to a sensor network, AS-interface.
Modems connect a local network with a wired or a wireless telephone network.
Benefits
Industrial design and highest reliability.
Tested and verified communication equipment.
