CC-Link automation networking
Reason seven. Station bypass.
Stations can be selected as bypassed without effect on cycle time for flexible production lines and easy maintenance. This feature is also useful when creating a future proof network topology as it allows the setup for the network to be created in the Master but the actual hardware stations to be added on gradually or at a later date. These stations can be activated without stopping or resetting the network, saving lost production or additional software writing and commissioning time. Look out for the CC-link logo 
Reason eight. Response time.
People confuse the actual speed of the network with its refresh or response time. CC-Link has a network speed of up to 10Mbps but, what is more important, is it can refresh all data (4096 words and 8192 bits) in all 65 stations in 3.9 milli-seconds giving a very fast response time not only for Data transmission but also for physical digital field reaction times, which are needed in high speed production lines such as pharmaceutical and packaging machines.

Reason nine. Determinism.
All the CC-Link network family were designed from the beginning to be truly deterministic with guaranteed response times. Determinism guarantees that data sent and received on the network is actio ned by the connected devices within a stated period of time and is not corrupted in any way. This determinism is very important on Quality Assurance data and time stamping applications where guaranteed response is laid down in the specifications. Look out for the CC-link logo
