Aerotech Automation1 HyperWire Motion Control Communication Bus

Flexible, Reliable Performance at Light Speed

The fiber-optic, light-based HyperWire® motion control bus is the fastest,

highest-throughput communication bus in motion control. It enables 20

times the throughput that was possible with a 100BASE-T Ethernet.

With HyperWire, you can count on reliable communication that is

immune to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and nearly free of jitter.

Plus, the HyperWire protocol operates at 100 kHz—five times the speed

of competing solutions—enabling efficient, multi-input, multi-output (MIMO)

control algorithms you won’t find anywhere else. Hyperwire is flexible

enabling servo motor and laser scan head drives to be simultaneously

added to a single HyperWire network.
