Industrial ethernet plays a vital role in achieving total transparency in an industrial plant and between plant and enterprise networks. At the core of industry 4.0 is a constant communication network. Industrial automation and industrial communication networks are entirely based on real-time operational requirements. Additionally, they need to be able to scale across a wide spectrum of software supporting different standards and interfaces. A factory system shall have faster response times, better efficiency and higher reliability.

Growing Demand for Smart Connectivity: Industrial modular connectors went a step further by performing active functions like surge voltage protection to protect digital or analogue I/O sensor circuits, or energy measurement and status monitoring. Integrating surge protection, energy measurement, machinery ID and even an ethernet switch into the connector removes the need for discrete devices and cabling for those functions. For instance, the fact that surge protection integrated into the connector needs no more than a few surge arresters inside a control cabinet.
