On Wednesday, June 17, 2026, the process industry will reflect on an important step towards future-proof installations. During the new Ethernet APL Event<\/a> Leading suppliers and industrial end-users show together what interoperability looks like in practice. No theory, but a fully functional live demo centering on a single integrated solution.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ethernet APL offers a unified infrastructure for data and power, delivers real-time insights over long distances, functions securely and robustly in challenging environments, and prevents dependency on a single vendor. During the event, it will become clear what is already possible today and what choices the industry must make tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Call for clarity, cooperation, and decisive action
\n<\/strong>Professionals in the process industry are under pressure: processes must become more efficient, costs must be reduced, and installations must be ready for the coming decades. Ethernet APL plays a key role in this. This event helps visitors gain a clear understanding of the technology, practical applications, and business case.<\/p>\n

FHI Branch Manager Roelof Kuipers aptly summarizes it in his recent column: \u201cThe question is not whether Ethernet APL will become the standard. The question is who dares to act with the confidence that the foundation is already in place.\u201d That call for clarity, cooperation, and decisive action forms the common thread of the program.<\/p>\n

What can visitors expect
\n<\/strong>Visitors can count on:A plenary program with insights from experts from the supply chain<\/span><\/p>\n
