It doesn’t. EtherNet/IP and standard industrial Ethernet are related, but not the same thing. Ethernet is the protocol for the physical layer that makes the connection to the network, and EtherNet/IP ...

AutomationDirect now offers EtherNet/IP protocol communication for the Protos X line of field I/O. The Protos X "Xpansion" field I/O system is a modular system consisting of a Bus Coupler and its ...

What does Ethernet and TCP/IP actually mean? Find out inside PCMag's comprehensive tech and computer-related encyclopedia.

Manufacturers are looking at control protocols that run on Ethernet networks to cut costs and bring the management of factory processes into the domain of an overall enterprise IP network.

The software protocols built on top of the Ethernet physical layer, such as TCP/IP, are necessary to provide reliable delivery of information, as Ethernet-based systems generally perform flow control ...

“GL’s PacketScan™ HD is a high-density Ethernet monitoring appliance with specialized network interface cards, large storage capacity and protocol analysis software.

Ethernet-based protocols are being used more frequently at field sites. Most are open-standard protocols, such as Modbus/TCP, EtherNet/IP, OPC UA in automation, or ONVIF in video.

This relatively new protocol for storage technology offers many compelling benefits, including the ability to inexpensively create a storage area network using standard Ethernet components ...

As companion networks, DeviceNet and EtherNet/IP use the same application-layer protocol. Consequently, the networks also share device profiles and an object library. This allows EtherNet/IP ...

Altera is the only company bringing together the leading IP partners and low-cost FPGA solutions for the industrial customer base.†To support Cyclone series FPGA-based industrial designs, IXXAT, one ...
