CC-Link IE TSN
Learn how CC-Link IE TSN can help deliver the converged network architectures needed for Industry 4.0 and the next 20 years of automation.
TSN: delivering convergence and transparency
The CC-Link Partner Association has combined the proven gigabit technology of CC-Link IE with Time-Sensitive Networking to deliver the future of open industrial Ethernet.
Learn MoreTime Sensitive Networking: the case for action now
The adoption of Industry 4.0 is being driven by its ability to address the challenges faced by today’s users of industrial automation control systems, allowing them to increase competitiveness by optimizing their operations. TSN directly supports these requirements.
Learn MoreWhat is TSN, how does it work & why is it important?
TSN is an extension of standard Ethernet that regulates the data communication in Layer 2 – Data Link of the OSI reference model. Its main aim is to make standard Ethernet deterministic but it also provides the mechanisms to allow multiple types of traffic to share the same network, providing the basis of convergence.
Learn MoreBenefits of network convergence
The aim of TSN is to make standard Ethernet deterministic. As a result, it is possible to deliver information in a predictable manner and enable converged networks. Hence it is a technology that will benefit vendors, machine builders and end users.
Learn MoreDelivering the promise of Industry 4.0
With the CLPA introducing CC-Link IE TSN, the established open industrial Ethernet solution provided by CC-Link IE added Time-Sensitive Networking compatibility. This delivered the world’s first open industrial Ethernet technology to combine gigabit bandwidth with TSN.
