What are the industrial communication methods?

The two mainstream industrial communication methods are:

1. Fieldbus systems, such as PROFIBUS-DP, DeviceNet, ModBus, and others.

2. Industrial Ethernet (PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, etc.)

A fieldbus is a digital, serial, multipoint communication data bus that connects field devices installed in manufacturing or process areas with automated devices in the control room. It is an industrial data bus, serving as the underlying data communication network in the field of automation.

Industrial Ethernet is a robust regional and unit network based on IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet). With Industrial Ethernet, SIMATIC NET provides a seamless pathway into the new multimedia world. The extensive applications provided by Intranet, Extranet, and the Internet have not only entered today's office domain but are also applicable to production and process automation. Following the successful operation of 10Mbps Ethernet, the switchable, full-duplex, and adaptive 100Mbps Fast Ethernet (compliant with IEEE 802.3u standards) has been running smoothly for years. The type of Ethernet performance chosen depends on user needs. Universal compatibility allows for seamless upgrades to new technologies.
