We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Ethernet Connection",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Servo drives receive Ethernet connection from
Parker Hannifin Electromechanical Automation, which we summarised at the time by saying "System design and machine installation times are reduced with inexpensive Ethernet cabling for the interface between the servo drive and the motion
controller".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Drives meet labelling needs from
Lenze: "The complex motions of the composite can labeller together with high speeds require five axes of servo and two axes of inverters, all supplied by Lenze".
In October 2007, we covered the news from IEI Technology Corp
concerning its IEI quad-core LGA775 platforms
- take a look at Quad core platforms suit multitasking
which says: "The Intel Q965 Express chipset integrated on all IEI quad-core platforms is interfaced to an 8Mbyte L2 cache Intel Core 2 Quad processor through a 1066MHz front side bus".
Take a look also at the news release from Ethernet Direct, Ethernet switch suits tough environments,
as well as Enclosures integrate Ethernet distributor from Rittal,
and Software offers the features of 32 instruments from DSPCon.
