July 29, 2015 - Panduit acquired IntraVUE by Network Vision. This acquisition increases the Panduit Industrial Automation Infrastructure offering to its customer base with a tool for visualization and diagnostics of Industrial Ethernet control networks.
Automation networks are susceptible to interruptions which often result in downtime, and lost production.
