Industrial Ethernet integrated into Sensors makes the analog and digital input cards at control units unnecessary. All service and measurement data is read, analyzed and processed directly in the control unit without the need for conversion. Remote maintenance is also possible and installation is quick and easy thanks to standard data protocols and structures. The communication between the devices inside the network occurs in Realtime operation with high bandwidth. Power over Ethernet connects data transfer and Power Supply in one cable and thus reduces the wiring effort in the installation.
