Ethernet over LAPS The LAPS specification is discussed in ITU-T recommendation X.85/Y.1321 (IP over SDH using LAPS). It is defined as a type of high-level data link controller (HDLC) that includes ...

It doesn’t. EtherNet/IP and standard industrial Ethernet are related, but not the same thing. Ethernet is the protocol for the physical layer that makes the connection to the network, and EtherNet/IP ...

AutomationDirect now offers EtherNet/IP protocol communication for the Protos X line of field I/O. The Protos X "Xpansion" field I/O system is a modular system consisting of a Bus Coupler and its ...

RapidIO technology has been optimized for embedded systems, particularly those which require multiple processing elements to cooperate. Like PCIe, the RapidIO protocol exchanges packets and smaller ...

EtherNet/IP is an application-layer protocol that operates above TCP/IP and the MAC layer. It incorporates the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) as the top three layers.

For example, a protocol gateway can convert a field-layer protocol used in a Modbus RTU meter to a control-layer protocol such as EtherNet/IP.

What does Ethernet and TCP/IP actually mean? Find out inside PCMag's comprehensive tech and computer-related encyclopedia.

Like PCIe, the RapidIO protocol exchanges packets and smaller quantities of link-specific information called control symbols. RapidIO has characteristics of both PCIe and Ethernet. For example, ...
