PROFINET-INspektor® NT
Intelligent passive PROFINET analysis and monitoring device for continuous network diagnostics, topology monitoring and early detection of communication abnormalities.
Product Overview
The PROFINET-INspektor® NT is an intelligent, passive analysis device for continuous diagnosis, monitoring and validation of PROFINET networks. It records relevant network events and communication data during operation, providing detailed insight into network load, data throughput, telegram jitter, telegram gaps, device diagnostics and network stability.
The integrated web interface provides a live view of the network topology and diagnostic information, allowing potential problems and affected network segments to be identified quickly. The PROFINET-INspektor® NT can be used for network acceptance testing, commissioning, maintenance and continuous condition monitoring, helping operators identify abnormalities before they lead to network failures.
