Interesting Facts about Industrial Ethernet Switches Industry
Increasing Speed of Factory Automaton
Ethernet switches connect networking devices with computers. Industrial grade switches are made so that they can connect devices working in the toughest industrial conditions. They are subjected to extreme weather, vibrations and shocks. These kinds of switches have plenty of uses in factory automation and control, oil and gas sectors, and intelligent transport systems.
There will be growth in the industrial switches market due to many factors. One of these is the greater need for ensuring communication efficiency in the transport and automotive sectors. The market for industrial switches will also be driven by the development of the smart grid, intelligent traffic, surveillance and security, and utilities.
Vulnerability To Security Breaches to Arrest the Market Growth
However, the key factor that can hinder the growth of the industrial switches market is its vulnerability to security breaches. On the other hand, the development and rise of Industry 4.0 will provide opportunities to boost the industrial switches market. The transportation and automotive industries are currently in the process of developing interconnected vehicles. This will further fuel the growth of the market.
Setback Due to COVID 19
The industrial switches market has taken a big setback from the covid-19 epidemic. Due to lockdowns and restrictions, there have been severe workforce shortages across the globe, which have halted production in the semiconductors and electronics sectors. Due to facility closures, travel bans, and reduced manufacturing utilization, the market for industrial switches has slowed down substantially.
Industrial Ethernet Switch Offer Reliability in Tough Conditions
The industrial ethernet switch is made to operate reliably in the toughest industrial scenarios. Hence, these switches find use in manufacturing plants, railways, oil rigs, and other locations since they can withstand electrical noise, vibration, humidity, and a wide temperature range. Industrial networking solutions and manufacturing automation have deterministic network requirements. Industrial Ethernet switches are designed to fulfill these needs.
Industrial Ethernet switches have applications in the Internet of Things where they are used to interconnect different kinds of devices. In IoT, devices distributed over many locations are connected to a network to collect, monitor, control, and process data. The industrial IoT or IIoT is a term that is used when IoT is designed to accommodate tough industrial environments.
Due to their ruggedness and reliability, industrial Ethernet switches find use in mining, oil, and gas, marine, outdoor applications, as well as factory and industrial automation. Industrial Ethernet switches are enclosed in rugged steel housings that use panel mounting or Din-Rail. Manufacturing, Electric and Power, Aerospace and Defense, Automotive and Transportation, Oil and Gas, and Others are major industry verticals wherein Industrial Ethernet switches have applications.
