- Learn from well-known faculty and industry experts from around the globe.F
- lexibility of attending anytime from anywhere, even when you are working full-time.
- Interact with industry experts during the webinars and get the latest updates/announcements on the subject.
- Experience a global learning with students from various backgrounds and experience which is a great networking opportunity.
- Gain practical knowledge in the field of designing and troubleshooting of Industrial Ethernet networks, as well as the selection, installation, and configuration of components such as routers and switches.
- Get in-depth knowledge on TCP/IP protocols and learn how to addresses design and configuration issues related to IPv4 and the more recent IPv6.
- Learn about advanced practical aspects and applications of Industrial Ethernet components such as advanced switching and routing, Modbus, CCTV over IP, Intrinsically Safe applications, Industrial Security, and highly deterministic Ethernet-based field buses.
This course deals in-depth with the underlying TCP/IP protocols, and specifically addresses both design and configuration issues related to IPv4 and the more recent IPv6.
It also covers the more advanced aspects and applications of Ethernet such as advanced switching and routing, CCTV over IP, Modbus, Industrial Security, Intrinsically Safe applications, switched rings (including the latest IEC 62439-3 redundant ring standard), and highly-deterministic Ethernet-based field buses (e.g., for servo control) capable of 1-millisecond repetition rates and jitter of less than 1 microsecond. It is highly practical, with access to remote laboratories and cutting-edge simulation software, allowing you to achieve hands-on outcomes.
