Physically speaking, EtherCAT® is a ring system that uses a one-totalframe protocol, where the device manipulates the data during the cycle. It has two physical variants, the E-bus and Ethernet.
E-bus is only suitable for short distances within a device; only the Ethernet version offers the benefits of an Ethernet system.
