The popularity of Ethernet as an industrial communication bus is constantly increasing. However the original concept of the Ethernet, which was developed during seventies of the last century as communication technology for "office treatment," has to face some issues specific for industrial applications. The concept of the Ethernet proved to be very successful and encountered issues are being addressed by modifications and extensions of the most popular 10/100 BaseT standard. This paper describes some issues, which have to be addressed when developing a sensor with embedded Ethernet interface. The contribution discusses an industrial grade Ethernet connector, suitable power method and some other topics. An example of such developed sensors is described.
