TSN plus OPC UA as the New Standard for the Industrial World

Industrial communication must be fast, real-time capable and standardized so companies can meet the challenges of digitization. Therefore, WAGO is committed to promoting OPC UA over TSN as a form of communication that will make the cross-level, manufacturer-independent solutions of tomorrow possible.

Efforts are underway around the world to develop communication solutions for real-time and sensor-to-cloud applications in industrial environments. The promising approaches include the future industry standard OPC UA over TSN. The goal of TSN (Time-Sensitive Networking) is to expand conventional Ethernet with the capabilities required for the real-time transmission of data – with a bandwidth of multiple gigabits. In combination with the manufacturer-independent communication protocol OPC UA, it allows fast, easy, secure use of information across different manufacturer systems. Therefore, in the future, WAGO will offer OPC UA over TSN on its controllers.
