Moxa Inc., a supplier of industrial communications and networking, announced it has obtained TSN Component Certification from the Avnu Alliance for components used in its TSN-G5000 Series industrial Ethernet switches. Moxa’s TSN-powered switches enable users to design interoperable, deterministic, reliable end-to-end communications to achieve time-sensitive networking (TSN) for critical industrial applications without the limitations of proprietary systems.

Industrial Ethernet Switches

As an industry forum for integrating deterministic capabilities into open, standards-based networking, the Avnu Alliance Component Certification Program focuses on core TSN standards, including timing and synchronization (802.1AS) and enhancements for scheduled traffic (802.1Qbv). Manufacturers from different markets can now verify the compliance of their components with the core TSN standards, resulting in improved interoperability and easier integration with other systems.

Moxa supports the Component Certification Program by providing testing products and completing test cases for network devices, such as Ethernet switches, to help develop the program. Moxa’s experience with worldwide TSN projects such as the IEC/IEEE 60802 TSN profile for industrial automation and the IEEE 802.1 TSN Task Group, also played a crucial role in translating IEEE SA 802.1 TSN standards into test specifications.

Moxa’s TSN Ethernet switches with Avnu-certified components feature a compact design and user-friendly interface. These Ethernet switches can be used in a variety of applications such as factory automation, dynamic mass customization, hydropower plants, and CNC machines.
