What is TSN?

TSN ensures that critical data is transmitted with minimal data loss, latency, and with high priority, thereby improving overall network performance.

TSN makes it possible to synchronize clocks across devices, reserve bandwidth for important data, and prioritize its transmission over less critical information.

This makes TSN essential for applications requiring precise timing and synchronization, such as industrial automation, autonomous driving and real-time audio/video streaming.

What TSN Does?

    
        Technology
        Description
      

    
        TAS — Time-Aware Shaper
        Schedules time-critical Ethernet traffic into dedicated time slots to ensure deterministic, low-latency communication.
      

        CBS — Credit-Based Shaper
        Regulates Ethernet traffic using a credit-based mechanism to reduce congestion and provide predictable bandwidth for high-priority data.
      

        FRER — Frame Replication and Elimination for Reliability
        Improves network reliability by sending duplicate frames over separate paths so communication can continue even if one path fails.
      

        YANG / NETCONF / RESTCONF
        Provides standardized models and interfaces for configuring, managing, and dynamically controlling TSN network devices.
