Conet is the solution, a uniquely positioned communications infrastructure designed to blend the many communications standards into a network of networks, integrating networks into a unified system. Do you have the challenge of getting I/O information to/from hard to reach locations?.
Do you have the challenge of getting I/O information from one location to another without having to install new cable?.
The solution is Conet, a uniquely positioned communications infrastructure designed to blend the many communications standards into a network of networks,an inter-networking technology that integrates standard networks into a unified plant-wide I/O and information system. Conet was developed in response to a need from plant operators who wished to bring field data back to the control room or supervisors office in the most cost effective way. Thus one of the most important features of Conet is its ability to operate on low cost cabling which, in many instances already exists. The rugged Conet fieldbus network can fetch data up to 10km away on existing cables, aking possible the integration of systems not thought feasible. Conet offers possibilities for any style of system. * An Ethernet backbone.
* A plant-wide DCS system.
* A standardised PLC control systems policy.
* One (or more) of the Fieldbus standards. Or just the challenge of getting I/O information to/from hard to reach locations, Conet technology, implemented on the Maxiflex I/O platform range, offers the solution.
