The digitalization challengeWhether with Industrial Ethernet or PROFINET, the requirements in terms of

connection technology performance in the fi eld are constantly increasing. Intelligent

production facilities are becoming increasingly networked, which increases the total

number of interfaces. Modular and standardized connectors are helping to make

automation more fl exible and effi cient. Consistently good quality in the fi eld depends

on the interplay between all cables and connector components, and on having the

right tools.

“I have worked at Phoenix Contact for

over 30 years and have been involved

in shaping automation technology here

right from the start. I fi nd Industrie 4.0

incredibly fascinating. We can all see how

our world is changing due to digitalization.

Based on this, we can assume that our

industrial environment will also start to

change signifi cantly faster in the future.

In this world, all parts of industry will be

connected, and people, machines, and

products will communicate with each

other. New opportunities will be created.”

Roland Bent

Executive Board, Marketing and Development

Power transmission and distribution

Digitalization is a central component of power

management. Integrated cabling solutions ensure

effi cient communication.

PHOENIX CONTACT 3


Machine building

To handle customer-specifi c production

orders more effi ciently, machines and devices

must be networked with one another in a way

that is fl exible and future-proof.

Device manufacturers

A multitude of designs, codings, and pin

assignments allow integrated and future-proof

data transmission up to 40 Gbps.

Automotive

An integrated product range for

faultless data transmission for

reliable and fl exible production.

4 PHOENIX CONTACT


Huge data volumes

Within certain applications, such as backbone

cabling, transmission rates of up to 25, 40 or

even 100 Gbps are already being reached. In

industrial applications, the market standard is

currently 10 Gbps.

Data communication trendsThe number of data interfaces is increasing globally. The growth of network-based

systems is above average. Across the widest range of applications, such as industrial

automation, process technology, and energy supply, data connectors are providing the

intelligent connections of tomorrow. High data transmission rates and standardized

interfaces are to ensure a high degree of system reliability with a low level of failures

and little downtime.

Hybrid connection technology

Digitalization requires an intelligent infra-

structure that networks and supplies all

participants in a resource-effi cient manner.

Hybrid solutions satisfy this requirement –

they transmit data and power via one

interface.

Miniaturization

Devices and modules are becoming

increasingly smaller and, at the same time,

more powerful. This necessitates compact

connection solutions with greater packing

densities.

Future-proof networking

The Industrie 4.0 vision is that all participating

entities are networked, from the planning

phase through to production. Standardized

interfaces ensure integrated and manufacturer-

independent compatibility.
