Industrial ethernet & Profinet difference

profinet is acombination between ethernet and profibus

the main advantage in profibus over ethernet is that has priority

for ethernet u can not set priorities so an order to a drive could be delayed if someone is sending an email for example and thus u can not guarantee real time communication

with profinet u have all the advantages of both profibus and ethernet
