Whats the biggest difference between the Industrial Ethernet and PROFINET?

0

PROFINET IO brings Industrial Ethernet down to the field level and introduces the concept of real time operations. PROFINET also allows standard TCP/IP communications to take place AND it offers the high performance real time needed for motion control. Functional Safety can also be deployed on a PROFINET network. Overall, the capabilities of PROFINET are broader and more flexible than PROFIBUS, especially when considered in an enterprise-wide context.
