Ethernet switch for high time accuracy

Staff -- Control Engineering, 7/1/2007

system integration, networks, ethernetEthernet switch from Westermo is designed to operate with high accuracy time synchronization off-the-shelf on both SNTP/NTP and PTP open standard protocols. Allowing events to be time stamped with high accuracy precision, Ethernet switch provides a full and exact history of data events with 1 microsecond to 20 nanoseconds accuracy for sophisticated and critical industrial processes. GPS offers absolute time for any factory all over the world for applications such as high speed, 3D laser digitalization, high-speed assembly lines, and high- and medium-voltage station control where time synchronization is crucial. Switch is said to save in the cost of industrial automation networks for high-speed data acquisition, high-speed mechanical assemblies, high-voltage or medium-voltage substation automation, and similar applications. www.westermo.com Westermo
