Abstract :
In this paper, the use of fast and Gigabit Ethernet in advanced networked control systems is studied. Redundant control node scenario is the key factor for minimum down-time. Ethernet 802.3 protocol is tested without modification in frame format. Gigabit Ethernet succeeded to absorb the control traffic of several working machines while fast Ethernet could not.
