Industrial ethernet tools
Industrial ethernet networks are the backbone of many automation control systems. Cabling, whether copper or fiber optic, is a major cause of downtime on these time-sensitive industrial networks. Losing just a few data packets in a short time can cause a machine to shut down. This is especially true in industrial and manufacturing environments where network cables are exposed to vibration, flexing, moisture, temperature changes and EMI from motor drives and other devices. Fluke Networks has a range of products that can be used by plant electricians and control engineers to quickly pinpoint cable defects.
