Industrial Automation and Time-Sensitive Networking

June 18, 2025
TSN is critical for fast, real-time industrial networking.

Timing can be critical when implementing industrial automation. Real-time, deterministic control is needed to keep things moving safely and efficiently. Time-sensitive networking (TSN) is a standard that can make this happen.
