8. PROFINET IO switch
The TPS-1 contains a PROFINET switch with 2 external ports. Thus, PNIO devices can be connected directly to each other without the need for
external switching devices (line topology).

All necessary PROFINET protocols are implemented (LLDP, PTCP, MRP, etc.). Additionally, the TPS-1 features 2 integrated PHY devices (IEEE
802.3, IEEE802.3u, ANSI X3.263-1995 and ISO/IEC9314).
Each port of the integrated PROFINET switch has its own MAC address. The MAC addresses are provided by the device manufacturer and stored in
the Boot-Flash of the TPS-1.
The implemented hardware processes support all PROFINET communication channels (NRT, RT and IRT). The Ethernet standards 100BASE-TX and
100BASE-FX are supported.
Additionally, the PHYs support the following features:
• Auto-Negotiation,
• Auto-Crossing
• Auto-Polarity
In order to indicate network status and traffic, the TPS-1 provides respective signaling outputs:
