Abstract :
We newly established loop hub technology for TC-net I/O loop which is useful to enhance the construction of the TC-net I/O loop flexibly. Loop hub effectively uses the advantage of the loop topology and can solve the weak point. Moreover, it becomes possible to achieve a flexible network configuration by achieving coexistence with the star topology. In this paper, we summarize the features of TC-net, and introduce the characteristics and control scheme of loop hub technology.
