PROFINET
PROFINET is the open Industrial Ethernet-standard of the PNO (PROFIBUS User Organisation). PROFINET IO describes the exchange of data between controllers and field devices in several real-time classes: RT (software-based real-time) and IRT (hardware-supported isochronous real-time). In addition, further Ethernet traffic can be transmitted in the NRT (non-real-time) time slot of the PROFINET cycle. RT can be networked with commercially available switches; switches with corresponding hardware support are required for IRT.
