Therefore, only one network for safety and non-safety data transfer is necessary.
SafeEthernet can be fitted to existing Ethernet networks with adjustable network
profiles. With SafeEthernet, you can set up flexible built-up system structures for
decentral automation with defined reaction times. According to the requirements,
the intelligence can be centralized or distributed to the participants in a decentral
way within the network. There is no limit to the number of safe participants of the
network and the amount of transferred safe data to get the needed reaction times.
A central controller and the built-up of parallel structures is therefore superfluous.
The transmission of standard and safe data can be integrated into one network. A
separate safety bus can be saved. The switches of the safety remote I/O device
perform the tasks normally carried out by network switches.
