It is important not to confuse communication protocols with standards for electrical characteristics of physical communication media. Different communication media are used depending on project needs. The standards’ main differences are the communication speeds, the maximum number of connected devices and the physical distance between connected nodes. RS-232The RS-232 (Recommended Standard 232) or also known EIA-232 (Electronic Industries Alliance-232) standard is used only in point-to-point communications, i.e. it only supports communications between two devices, which in the case of the Modbus protocol would be a master and a slave device. The maximum speed of RS-232 is around 115Kbp/s with a maximum distance between network devices of about 30m. RS-422, or also TIA/EIA-422, was intended to replace the older RS-232C standard with a standard that used differential signalling to provide higher speeds, longer cable lengths and less noise. At short distances, data transmission rates can reach up to 10 Mbit/s. At lower rates, data can be send through cables with a length of up to 1,500 meters. RS-485The RS-485 (Recommendad Standard-485) or EIA-485 (Electronic Industries Alliance-485) standard is one of the most widely used standards for serial communication in industrial applications. The main difference with RS-232 is that it allows more than two devices on the network, enabling to have several slaves. It achieves rates of up to 12Mbps and in rarer cases up to 50Mbps, while the maximum distance within the network is 1200m, and the maximum number of devices on the network is 32. EthernetDepending on the variation used, transimission speeds with Ethernet range from 100Mbps and up to 10Gbps, while maximum distance can vary from 100m to 200m depending on project conditions and the type of cable used. In some cases, it is possible to use fiber optic networks, which enable longer distances and higher communication rates, as well as wireless communication. |
