Upgrade path offered for development tools
Sixnet encourages existing users to keep their existing Workbench keys so they may convert existing applications on their own time frame and with no risk.
At the heart of Etherbus are standard Ethernet (802.3) and PoE (802.3af) making it truly open.
Etherbus is "Every bus" because it passes any and all Ethernet message packets regardless of origin or protocol.
Etherbus works with Modbus/TCP, Profinet, and Ethernet/IP.
Etherbus works with PoE devices as well as nonPoE devices.
It can even deliver standard +24V DC to field-mounted devices - even nonEthernet devices.
The EB-5ES-PSE (five-port) industrial Ethernet PoE switch provides advanced performance that enables users to achieve real-time deterministic operation.
The four PoE ports automatically sense and support both PoE and nonPoE (traditional) Ethernet devices.
The EB-PD industrial PoE splitters convert the 48V DC from PoE lines to 24V DC to power conventional (nonPoE) Ethernet devices.
These ruggedised splitters are industrial hardened to provide superior reliability.
The EB-PSE industrial PoE injectors add 48V DC power into one or two Ethernet ports so that you can pass power and data over the same wire to Ethernet devices in the field.
All these PoE devices will save you time and money by eliminating the need for separate power wiring.
The EB-PS-AC48-75 and -120 industrial power supplies put 48V DC for your Etherbus system and are designed to meet or exceed the requirements of the industrial devices that they power.
They are ideal for any industrial application where consistent performance and long-term reliability are a must.
The EB-CAT5E industrial Ethernet cable is re-inforced by Kevlar, making it extremely tough.
Users can combine it with the EB-RJF rugged quick-latching connectors to create the most rugged cable sets in the world. Request a free brochure from Sixnet ...
