Hello Amahrit; First, I propose you look at the following document: https://eastmanreference.com/the-difference-between-an-ethernet-splitter-a-switch-and-a-hub Notice that the splitter does not function exactly as you imagined in your original post: if does not provide dual transmission paths between a PLC Ethernet port and equipment on the LAN. In any case, even if it did, this would not provide a solution to your basic question: if the PLC's Ethenet port is defective, no signal be generated to the splitter and connect to the LAN.The spitter will not provide any form of media redundancy to your design. What PLC hardware are you using in this case, what model number? Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |
