INTERBUS LOOKS TO PI FOR ITS ETHERNET FUTURE

摘要

Last month, the InterBus Club announced the integration of its fieldbus technology with PI (Profibus and Profinet International). In a statement issued at the Hannover trade fair, InterBus said that it will now rely on Profinet for its future Ethernet-based standard. Members of the InterBus Club have decided to transfer the technology to PI and to disband the organisation once its mission has been achieved. Chairman Stefan Korte said the "easy and economical" integration into Profinet will ensure that the investments of InterBus technology users are protected.
