Optical Fibers for Automation Controls and Industrial Networking

When:  Jun 8, 2017 from 10:00 to 11:00 (ET)
This webinar by OFS is designed to help integrators add value to your customer and will address one small, but very critical aspect of the design and what enables it all to operate – the proper choice of fiber optics for the system’s environment.

With manufacturing and industrial processing shifting emphasis to the ‘Industrial Internet of Things’ (IloT), there comes the challenge of transforming traditional Industrial Automation configurations to a more intelligent network. This system, which utilizes Industrial Ethernet, enhances the factory floor to be a more intelligent, efficient, and sophisticated network. As an integrator the challenge becomes not only the implementation of the design but the hand-holding of the customer through the process.

It is essential that a factory investing in the best equipment from the Application Layer down should support it with the environmentally appropriate fiber optic from the Plant Floor up’. Not all fiber optics are alike-from the glass to the coatings to the cable structure and the connector type. This webinar will enhance your knowledge for basic fiber optic selection to help you provide value to your customer. -
