The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is now a well-established concept and it’s already a major influence on many of the products we offer at RS.
Applications for IIoT technology fall into two distinct groups.
The first are those used by electronics designers, envisioning and creating connected or ‘smart’ devices, vehicles or buildings. These customers depend on us for access to the latest ideas and new technology such as innovative wireless and Ethernet modules and chipsets.
The second group are those used by industrial engineers, who need IIoT parts and devices because now working with technology that uses (or needs to be upgraded to) IIoT connectivity.
Helping you embrace IIoT | Introduction to IIoT
We continually explore the industrial electronics sector and work closely with market-leading, innovative manufacturers to source the latest IIoT parts and technology for engineers. Watch this video where we discuss a summary of the key areas to consider when considering implementing IIoT.
