Plan, Visualize and Optimize Industrial Networks
Vendor-neutral planning software for industrial networks
PROnetplan V2 enables pre-planning of converging industrial networks based on Industrial Ethernet and PROFINET. PROnetplan V2 focuses especially on bandwidth planning. As a result, it can be ensured from the network planning stage that all applications used in the network can communicate smoothly.
Parameters taken into account and displayed by PROnetplan V2:
- Type of application (PROFINET, TCP/IP application)
- Number of units/payload
- Server (communication sink)
- Data throughput / backplane capacity / required number of ports for the switches used
- Bandwidth / network load for each connection
- Update times for the cyclic units (e.g. with PROFINET)
- Required number of ports
- Available line depth
- Uni-/bidirectional communication, broadcast
