Overview of OPC UA TSN

Ethernet has become a very extensive communication protocol standard for the intercommunication and connection of enterprises, homes and even data center networks. However, with the rapid development of network technology and the expansion of vertical industry applications, at the data transmission level, there will be higher requirements for the certainty, real-time, and reliability of network transmission. The traditional Ethernet channel access method is based on competition, and cannot meet the real-time requirements of various industries. The OPC UA TSN combination emerges spontaneously. The communication network provided by this combination is not only highly deterministic and real-time, but more importantly, it realizes the true independence of the communication network from equipment manufacturers, in terms of network security, bandwidth, interoperability, synchronization, and delay. It has brought huge improvements. It has to be said that the OPC UA TSN combination is the best partner for establishing a comprehensive network between the sensor and the cloud.
