The AS620, OM650, and ES680 subsystems of TXP are interconnected via the
bus system Industrial Ethernet, which features the following advantages:
• High availability
• Single-fault tolerance
• Standardized protocol architecture in accordance with ISO/OSI
• Ability to use the optimum transfer medium (drop cable, twisted pair, or
fiber-optic cable)
• High-performance transfer rate (100/10Mbit/s)
• Support for the use of redundant TXP participants
• Bus management and diagnostics functions
• Scale-ability with respect to plant size
• Wide area coverage
• Bridges, which are used for:
• implementing backbones
• connecting to other networks
• increasing coverage
• safety de-coupling
• load de-coupling
• WAN coupling
