Smart Switch Management
25.04.2025
Since 2024, we have been working on innovative solutions within our R&D project “ISwMa – Intelligent Switch Management in OT Networks” to make industrial networks (OT) more powerful, stable, and resilient.
Our goal: Stable, efficient, and real-time-capable data communication – even in the event of device failures or increasing data volumes. To achieve this, we are developing:
- Intelligent mechanisms that respond automatically to network failures
- Optimized communication paths with minimal resource usage
- Redundant transmission routes for maximum reliability
With ISwMa, we are creating the foundation for highly available and future-ready OT infrastructures that meet the growing demands of automation and digital production.
The project is supported by the Thüringer Aufbaubank (TAB) under the FTI-Thüringen TECHNOLOGY program with funding of up to €999,996.49, and is co-financed by the European Union (EFRE).
