Industrial communication now influences time to market, lifecycle costs, and the future of entire product portfolios. A platform approach, multiprotocol capability, and technologies such as Gigabit Ethernet, TSN, and IIoT are becoming strategic factors. This blog article explores what decision-makers need to consider and how netX 900 addresses these demands.

PC-based automation systems now perform key tasks in machines and plants – from motion control and robotics to AI and edge applications. At the same time, requirements for industrial communication are increasing significantly. In addition to real-time capability and multiprotocol support, lifecycle management and regulatory requirements such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) are moving into focus.

Industrial communication is becoming a system factor. Higher bandwidth, real-time performance, and rising cybersecurity requirements are reshaping modern automation. In the first part of our blog series, Hilscher explores why communication now goes far beyond connectivity – and how the next technology platform is taking shape with netX 900.
