What is EtherCAT?
Learn more about the unique functional principle of EtherCAT and how it simplifies implementation for end users while expanding the number of available devices.
Three criteria for choosing unmanaged Ethernet switches
Ensure all devices and Ethernet nodes in a system are connected so operators receive the critical data they need to maintain operations.
Single-pair Ethernet expands beyond automotive applications
Single-pair Ethernet (SPE), rated for rugged and harsh environments, is lightweight and more cost effective than four- or eight-wire Ethernet and can enable the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). See industrial communications speed vs. distance table.
TSN becoming a must-have for manufacturers
Time-sensitive networking (TSN) is shaping the future of industrial network technology through convergence, process transparency and next-level communications.
Digitalization with TSN, functional safety, edge computing, APL Ethernet, 5G
Industrial digitalization can involve many hardware, software and networking technologies, including these five.
How serial-to-Ethernet converters help attackers breach cyber-physical assets
Serial-to-Ethernet converters provide ICS operators with a cost effective and easy-to-use solution to achieve operational efficiency, but they also present malicious threat actors with a gateway to high-risk cyber-physical devices.
