Inside the Future of Industrial Ethernet Technology

The trend in industrial communications and automation

applications

As the world’s network and information technology becomes

more mature, the trend is to use Ethernet as the major

communications interface in many industrial communications

and automation applications. In fact, a whole new industry has

sprung up to provide Ethernet products that comply with the

requirements of demanding industrial applications.

Industrial vs. Commercial

Users have found that when moving Ethernet from the

comfortable office environment to the harsh and less

predictable industrial environment, the commercial Ethernet

equipment available in today’s market simply cannot meet the

high reliability requirements demanded by industrial applications.

This means that a more robust type of network equipment,

commonly referred to as industrial Ethernet equipment, is

required for these applications.

Informative vs. Passive

Since industrial Ethernet devices are often located at the

endpoints of a system, such devices cannot always know

what’s happening elsewhere on the network. This means that

industrial Ethernet communication equipment that connects

these devices must take responsibility for providing system

maintainers with real-time alarm messages.

Introduction

Moxa EtherDevice Server comes with a suite of useful

maintenance and monitoring functions, and is designed to provide

smooth and reliable operation in harsh industrial environments.

You will find that Moxa EtherDevice Server establishes a new

industrial Ethernet benchmark. It is excellent for keeping

automation systems running continuously, is ideal for sending

status reports to help prevent system damages and losses, is a

great tool for mastering your industrial Ethernet networks, and is

well-suited for use with industrial device control networks.

These products have a wide operating temperature range, from -40

to 75°C, and are designed to withstand a high degree of vibration

and shock. The rugged hardware design makes ED6008 Series

perfect for ensuring that your Ethernet equipment can withstand

critical industrial applications, such as in hazardous locations

(Class 1 Division 2/ Zone 2), and complies with FCC, TÜV, UL, and

CE Standards.
