subject: Aarkstore Enterprise---global Industrial Ethernet Equipment Market 2009 2013 [print this page] Industrial Ethernet Equipment is made of industrial-grade components that enable the Industrial Ethernet equipment to handle harsh industrial environments, such as extreme temperatures, vibrations, shocks etc. This equipment has fault-tolerant features, such as unlimited power supplies, so that they can be used in various factory floors with varied requirements. Industrial Ethernet equipment is being preferred over the Ethernet equipment as the former can work efficiently in hazardous industrial conditions. Ethernet equipment has helped improve processes, increase productivity, and integrate business and manufacturing networks. Thus, manufacturing companies and industries around the world have been increasingly adopting this equipment.
Online data management capability provided by Ethernet networks has increased industrial efficiency as it assists in managing diverse process steps across multiple locations. Industrial grade Ethernet tools and equipment can be reused to minimize introduction and running costs, which has driven the market for Industrial Ethernet equipment. Moreover, standards like EC 61158 and IEC 61784 have made Ethernet networking solutions more suitable for adoption by global enterprises and businesses, leading to growth of this market. Due to its ability to work in harsh environments, a number of industries are adopting industrial Ethernet networks and equipment. Such industries include Chemical, Automobile and Shipbuilding. Specialized Ethernet equipment is being developed to cater for specific industries; for example, Fireproof Ethernet equipment was designed for the Oil and Gas sector. Additionally, shock and vibration proof industrial Ethernet equipment is developed for the Mining industry.
This report highlights the scope of the Global Industrial Ethernet Equipment market. Further it discusses key market trends, drivers, growth inhibitors and a few major vendors in the market.
