industrial communication

Ethernet, the classic office application, is now increasingly required in industrial automation. Ethernet makes it possible to manage communications effectively. By selectively accessing every single point in the network, making adjustments and modifications is easier, leading to a reduction in downtime, and an increase in productivity.

Fibre optic cables of the UCFIBRE series, are the first choice for Ethernet in a rough industrial environment. Here the cables prove their superiority in a mechanical, chemical and climatic capacity - and, of course, you don’t need to worry about electromagnetic interferences.

Relevant Ethernet standards:
