|
Office
|
Industry
|
Installation
|
§ Fixed installation in the building
§ Normal RJ45 connectors
§ Cabling mostly in star- topology
|
§ Plant dependent cabling
§ Field connectors up to IP67
§ Redundant ring structures
|
Data
|
§ Large data packets
§ Medium network availability
§ Mainly acyclic transmission
§ Real-time behavior not necesarry
|
§ Small data packets
§ Very high network availability
§ Predominantly cyclic transmission
§ Real-time behaviour necessary
|
Environment
|
§ Normal temperature range
§ Little dust, moisture and vibration
§ Hardly any mechanical loads or problems with chemicals
§ Low EMC Requirements
|
§ Extended temperature range
§ Dust, moisture and vibration
§ Risk of mechanical damage or problems with chemicals
§ High EMC requirements
