Start with the news release
Aaxeon releases wireless device server from
Aaxeon Technologies, which we summarised at the time by saying "Aaxeon Technologies has released a two-port industrial RS-232/422/485-to-Wi-Fi device server. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Wireless specification progresses to IEC from
Hart Communication Foundation: "Submitting WirelessHart as an IEC PAS is billed as a landmark for the process automation industry.".
In August 2008, we covered the news from Ethernet Direct
- take a look at Industrial Ethernet switches dons conformal coat
which says: "The IUE-500EC is designed especially for mission critical and harsh environmental applications with its conformal coating and extended temperature of -40 to +80C.".
Take a look also at the news release from Advantech (UK), Splitter provides power and data in one cable,
as well as Proprietary wireless still predominates from Venture Development Corp,
and Ethernet switches offer four fibre optic ports from Sixnet.
