Why choose EtherCAT for Control I/O System?
High Performance
Achieves outstanding performance on I/O handling with 276 μs cycle time at 44 % Bus Load and 122 μs telegram length.
Precise Synchronization
The distributed clocks in EtherCAT can lead to exact adjustment with less 1 µs in synchronization
Flexible Wiring Topology
- Flexible tree structures – arbitrarily extendable
- Supports various topology variants like Line, Star, Tree, Daisy Chain + Drop Lines
High Availability
Enables cable redundancy with a ring topology that avoids communication failure when a cable is broken or unplugged
