Terms can sometimes play tricks on the mind. Take EtherNet/IP, for example. Many people will read “IP” as internet protocol and think that EtherNet/IP refers to plain old, standard industrial Ethernet ...

Ethernet has dominated wired computer-networking technology for decades, evidenced by its wide adoption in office, business, data-center, and home applications. Only more recently, though, has ...

Ethernet and Sonet are on a crash course. With Ethernet continuing to push its way out of the enterprise into the access and metro sectors, developers of Sonet equipment are being pushed to map ...

Ethernet is ubiquitous. As long as it is the protocol of choice in IT, and the cost of even industrially hardened Ethernet switches and I/O are low, Ethernet will remain the communication protocol of ...

Ethernet is ubiquitous—it is the core technology that defines the Internet and serves to connect the world in ways that people could not imagine even one generation ago. HPC clusters are working on ...

When choosing the Ethernet technology that might best fit your industrial system, you first need to have some base information: • How many I/O points do you have? • How fast do you need the ...

The technology started with 10-Mb/s coax cabling (10BASE5). Twisted-pair and RJ45 connectors quickly replaced that, while fiber optics was implemented for high-speed, long-distance communication.

When designing FPGA-based Ethernet connected embedded systems the priority and necessity of requirements such as cost, area, flexibility etc. varies for each system. Simplified for most systems, it ...

Security researchers made good on a promise to release new exploits for programmable logic controllers (PLCs). The exploits include one targeting a flaw in the implementation of the EtherNet/IP ...

Synopsys has announced Ultra Ethernet and UALink IP solutions to meet the demand for high-bandwidth and low-latency HPC and AI accelerator interconnects. The Ultra Ethernet IP solution will enable up ...
