Master Industrial Device Connectivity: PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, and Cybersecurity (Webinar)
Join HMS Networks and Elektor for an exclusive webinar on Tuesday May 21, 2024 (16:00pm CEST) - Register Now!
Industrial automation devices typically need to communicate using protocols such as PROFINET, PROFIBUS, EtherNet/IP or EtherCAT. These are well-defined but usually require special hardware and dedicated interfacing which makes implementation a complex and lengthy process.
In addition, security by design is rarely considered when designing and deploying industrial networks. IIoT introduces new threats beyond those of traditional industrial networks. Addressing this complexity requires multiple layers of defense adding to a project’s length and cost.
Join our live webinar where we will demonstrate how quickly such communications can be up and running using proven techniques, such as Raspberry Pi as a demonstrator.
