ETHERNET-SW: Guidance on Ethernet-Based Bus Topology in Building Management System

Part Number: ETHERNET-SW
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DP83869, DP83TD510E

Tool/software:

We are currently in the design phase of a new project, where we plan to implement device-to-device communication utilizing Ethernet with a bus topology.

This system is intended for a building management application, incorporating relays for load switching, lighting management protocols, energy monitoring, and other functionalities to ensure efficient building management. The architecture will involve multiple devices communicating with a main controller, with Ethernet serving as the medium for this bus topology.

Attached, you will find the primary block diagram for your review. We kindly request your expert opinion on whether you have any references or applications that employ a similar Ethernet-based bus topology. Additionally, we would appreciate your guidance on establishing an ecosystem that supports effectiveEthernet Arch.pdf communication protocols within this topology.
