Overview of EtherNet/IP
EtherNet/IP is a fieldbus network that provides easy interconnection between control
devices (PLC, PC, sensor, actuator, etc.).
EtherNet/IP was developed by Allen-Bradley as an open communication standard to
connect various field devices (sensor, actuator, robot controller, etc.). Because of the
open communication standard, EtherNet/IP users can easily construct a multi-vendor
system with various devices developed around the world.
