Industrial communication protocols explained | Eaton PSEC

Industrial communications enable data exchange between devices such as PLCs, HMIs, sensors, and SCADA systems. This data exchange can be used for monitoring, optimizing processes, or automation. Seth So, Eaton Power Systems Experience Center Engineer, discusses how Fieldbus, Ethernet, and wireless communications are designed and operate. Seth also delves deeper and explains different types of each communication protocol: Fieldbus • Modbus RTU • PROFIBUS • CAN bus Ethernet • Modus TCP/IP • PROFINET • EtherNet/IP Wireless • Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3) We also explain how these protocols and be combined to communicate with each other. Seth closes out the video by discussing cybersecurity standards and alignment. Thank you for watching one of our many educational videos on the topic of power systems.
