Ethernet
is increasingly used in Industrial applications such as
process control, heavy manufacturing, power plants, mining,
medical systems, HVAC systems, and traffic control. Durability,
often in a harsh environment, is the major consideration.
For
the manufacturing, traffic management, building automation,
and process control industries, the time to change to technologies
such as Ethernet has arrived! From embedded systems to
PLCs and factory management systems, every part of the
process control and automation industry is now gradually
realizing the benefits of utilizing standard Ethernet and
TCP/IP. Ethernet has become the dominant network technology
spanning the management systems to controller levels, making
sensor-to-boardroom manufacturing integration a reality.

Although
the Ethernet protocol used in the Industrial environments
is the same as in office and telecom environments, its
packaging for factory applications is considerably different. GarrettCom
manufactures products for industrial Ethernet applications
an is expanding its Magnum product line to offer products
suitable for Plantwide
LAN, Factory Floor, and Ethernet
Outdoors applications.

Many
Magnum products incorporate heavy-duty features needed
for industrial Ethernet applications, including:
- Noise-immune
fiber media, built-in
- Extended
temperature operating ranges
- Metal
cases for ruggedness and immunity
- Choice
of +24 VDC, +125 VDC, -48 VDC,
or AC power, all models
- Conformal
Coating option
- Tested
for stressed and harsh environments
- DIN-Rail mounting option
