Behind the Network Audit: What every engineer should know about network design, installation and reliability
Industrial networks rarely fail without warning — small issues simply go unnoticed.
In this practical session, our experts take you inside real PROFIBUS and PROFINET network audits to reveal what truly affects uptime, stability, and performance.
You’ll uncover the hidden problems audits expose, the diagnostic methods professionals rely on, and the immediate improvements you can apply in your own installations.
You’ll learn how to:
- Spot the most common PROFIBUS/PROFINET errors found during network audits
- Apply proven diagnostic workflows to isolate root causes quickly
- Detect physical-layer issues such as EMI/EMC, cabling faults, naming inconsistencies
- Improve stability through segmentation, managed switches, and basic cybersecurity
- Use essential maintenance tools to prevent failures and downtime
Who should join?
Engineers, technicians,
integrators, maintenance teams, and plant owners looking to improve the
reliability and uptime of their PROFIBUS and PROFINET networks.
