System Solutions using ETHERNET

Powerlink Communications

The high speed ETHERNET • Modular • Real-time, deterministic
Powerlink motionbus provides • Scalable for future data to and from nodes is
significant advantages in every development or machine guaranteed each cycle with
step of your project from design platforms the slot communications
to commissioning and even field • Simplified cabling network protocol, illustrated
service. System design flexibility • Single communication in the diagram below
is built in, offering both the tight access point • Proven, robust CANopen
synchronization of centralized • Centralized or decentralized profiles are sent over
control and the flexibility of architectures proven, robust Ethernet
distributed control. • Replace the traditional hardware
±10V analog control and • Standard TCP/IP
feedback cables with an all- communications does not
digital Ethernet network interrupt determinism, as
it takes place during the

• Excellent performance with
timing jitter <1 μs
