Industrial ethernet protocol standard

avatar
Lapp India

Profinet is the leading open industrial Ethernet protocol standard in Europe for all areas of industrial automation technology. This type of communication system enables data to be exchanged in real-time between controller devices and field devices using industrial Ethernet. Profinet is the successor to PROFIBUS®, a Fieldbus protocol standard which is standardised by the PROFIBUS & PROFINET International (PI) user organisation. LAPP is playing an active role in further developing Profinet. The profinet standard-compliant copper cables and components from Lapp etherline range have the inscription “PN” or “PNA”, “PNB” or “PNC”, which indicates at a glance that they are suitable for Profinet applications and shows their type specification . Depending on the type of application concerned, different types of cables are used for Profinet cabling: either cables with 4 cores enabling 100 Mbit/s, or cables with 8 cores enabling Gigabit-level performance.
