Ethernet Training

Successful data exchange requires a standardised communication technology, and all connected devices must "understand" this technology. In industrial communications many standards exist concurrently. These are known as fieldbusses. In the office environment, Ethernet is used in more than 90% of installations.

Over the last three years, the use of Ethernet in industrial environments has been increasing dramatically: for communication between PLCs, plant floor devices, and visualisation stations. Why?

Objectives

Decision makers, network designers, and sales personnel who require a concise overview of the possibilities of Industrial Ethernet.

During this training course, the participants will learn in a compact form the most important technical fundamentals, as well as the possible applications of Industrial Ethernet networks.

This knowledge will explain why Ethernet is increasingly gaining ground against fieldbusses in the industrial environment.

Prerequisities

No previous knowledge of the subject is required.
