Maintenance-free communication in real time Contactless power and data couplers When connections have to be plugged and unplugged often, the contacts may become dirty and misshapen. This leads to unplanned or unforeseeable production stoppages and frequent maintenance intervals. Thanks to NearFi Technology, the new power and data couplers make reliable wear- and maintenance-free communication without contact possible across distances of up to 10 mm. You can therefore replace wear-sensitive and maintenance-intensive connections and reduce downtimes in your systems. 30 PHOENIX CONTACT

new Contactless power and data transmission You can now transmit power and real-time Ethernet data without contact across distances of up to 10 mm with the robust NearFi couplers. Furthermore, our NearFi Technology, developed in house, allows latency-free and protocol-independent Ethernet communication. At the same time, the limited wireless range of just a few millimeters also ensures security and permits several parallel applications in the tightest of spaces. Web code: #2794 NearFi Technology Designed by Phoenix Contact Ethernet in real time Inductive power transmission Diagnostics via LED NearFi transmits Ethernet data at speeds of up to 100 Mbps without latency and regardless of protocol. You can therefore use all conventional Ethernet protocols with NearFi. The couplers also allow inductive power transmission. With active closed-loop control, the power is maintained at a constant 50 W across an operating range of 10 mm. The all-around LED ring clearly displays the operational readiness of the coupling path, even in difficult-to-access installation points. PHOENIX CONTACT 31

Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) Real-time capability for Industry 4.0 Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) is an Ethernet technology that controls data communication based on time synchronization and prioritization of the data flows. It allows the creation of an open, convergent Industry 4.0 network that is real time capable, and therefore of significant benefit in real-world applications. This means that real time-critical applications and data-intensive applications can be operated together within one network, without interfering with each other. Time Sensitive Networking Automation devices are becoming more intelligent. In addition, IT devices such as PCs and cameras are being used more often in machines and systems. With the increasing data load in the network, however, today’s networks are not always capable of ensuring that all real-time-relevant data arrives reliably and at the right time. Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) is the solution for significantly increasing the determinism of Ethernet. TSN is a new Ethernet technology that controls data communication based on time synchronization and prioritization of the data flows, thus enabling convergent networks. This ensures that an application cannot interfere with the communication of other applications, and vice versa. The real-time capability of the system is therefore guaranteed, and the reliability and availability of the network is increased. 32 PHOENIX CONTACT

new Managed Switches for TSN The new FL Switch TSN 2300 devices are the first Managed Switches for Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) from Phoenix Contact. By supporting the Profinet TSN profile, data can be transmitted deterministically and in real time in Ethernet networks, regardless of the protocol. The new devices support all functions of the well-known FL SWITCH 2000 product family, and thus allow the simple migration of current network solutions into state-of-the-art TSN architectures. They therefore increase the performance, robustness, and availability of your networks. Previously, real time-critical applications and data-intensive applications were realized via different systems to prevent reciprocal interference. With TSN, future applications with the widest range of requirements on bandwidth and timeliness can be realized “via one cable”, i.e., in one Ethernet network. With time synchronization and data flow prioritization, hard real-time requirements, for example for safety and motion applications, can be met despite the parallel communication of other systems. phoenixcontact.com/TSN PHOENIX CONTACT 33
