Ixxat Connect | The great safety protocol comparison: CIP Safety, PROFIsafe, and FSoE explained
In the fast-paced world of industrial automation, ensuring safety and reliability is crucial. With various safety protocols available – such as CIP Safety, PROFIsafe and Functional Safety over EtherCAT (FSoE) – choosing the right one for your systems can be overwhelming. That's why we've created this in-depth webinar to guide you through the key safety protocols used in industrial applications today.
Why should you watch?
This webinar is ideal for system integrators, automation engineers, and decision-makers involved in designing and maintaining safe industrial systems. Whether you’re already familiar with safety protocols or just starting to explore the topic, this session will provide actionable insights that you can apply immediately to your projects.
Here's what you'll discover:
- Diversity of safety protocols: Learn why multiple safety protocols exist and how they cater to different industrial networks, performance demands and vendor ecosystems.
- Early integration importance: Understand why incorporating safety protocols from the beginning of the design process can help you avoid costly limitations later on.
- Deep dive into CIP Safety, PROFIsafe, and FSoE: Gain comprehensive insights into the features, dependencies, and strategies for ensuring data integrity with these leading safety protocols.
- Wireless implementation challenges: Explore the specific challenges of implementing safety protocols over wireless networks and how to mitigate risks related to reliability, latency, and security.
- Other protocols in comparison: Get a brief overview of other important safety protocols like OpenSafety, CANopen Safety, IO-Link Safety, and OPC UA Safety, and understand where they fit into the industrial safety landscape.
