Industrial Ethernet Series Part 3: Designing Industrial Ethernet Networks

About

Overview

Length: 90 Minutes

Part 3 in the Industrial Ethernet Series.

Ethernet may be a good network for the plant floor, but a badly designed Ethernet network is a recipe for disaster. Starting with the nine key steps to successful network design, this seminar shows you how to create a reliable network for your plant. You will be introduced to the principles of good Ethernet cabling and equipment systems engineering, including a brief summary of the important EIA/TIA-568 standards.

Once the infrastructure is in place, we explore how to keep the network running reliably. Concepts of network security and redundancy for industrial control are introduced. Finally, numerous real life examples and case histories will help you avoid expensive mistakes in your plant and make Ethernet work for you.
