Intended Use for Industrial Ethernet: The trend to network industrial plant components using Ethernet protocols is well-established across market segments like automotive, general machine construction, process industry, transportation, and energy. These markets have differing requirements regarding protocols, environmental conditions, certifications, and standards. Weidmller offers a comprehensive and high-quality product range of active and passive components to meet these diverse needs, ensuring high reliability, availability, and safeguarding against failure with high MTBF times and robust connector systems like STEADYTEC. The product range creates a complete communications infrastructure for industrial applications.

Application Scenarios:

• Automotive: PROFINET and EtherNet/IP are preferred for communication between machines and equipment. Components must withstand harsh environmental conditions, require torsion-resistant cabling, and increased EMC demands. Managed switches with fast recovery times (<20 ms) are crucial to prevent network failures.
• General Machine Construction: Networking machine segments, device parts, and connecting to higher-level office networks are key. Serial devices are integrated via protocol converters to protect investments. High-performance Gigabit switches and plug-in connectors capable of 10 Gigabit transfer handle rising data volumes. Dragline cable-compatible connection cables and wireless modules are available for moving parts and hard-to-reach areas.
• Machinery: Seamless information flow is enabled from field to control level for optimizing production cells and monitoring activities. STEADYTEC technology ensures reliable connection solutions. Active components offer high-speed ring redundancy and redundant power supply for uninterrupted operation. Power-over-Ethernet switches supply operating voltage to cameras for manufacturing process monitoring.
