The Industrial Internet Consortium (IIC) and Avnu Alliance announced they have agreed to a liaison to work together to advance deployment and interoperability of devices with Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) open standards. Under the agreement, the IIC and Avnu will work together to align efforts to maximize interoperability, portability, security and privacy for the industrial Internet.

Joint activities between the IIC and the Avnu will include:

  • Identifying and sharing IIoT best practices

  • Realizing interoperability by harmonizing architecture and other elements

  • Collaborating on standardization

     

     

Avnu and IIC are meeting for a TSN Testbed plugfest later this month to evaluate and trial TSN device conformance tests that are being developed as a baseline certification in the industrial market.

The IIC Liaison Working Group is the gateway for formal relationships with standards and open-source organizations, consortia, alliances, certification and testing bodies and government entities/agencies. The agreement with the Avnu is one of a number of agreements made by the IIC’s Liaison Working Group.
