CPwE is a collection of tested and validated architectures that are developed by subject matter authorities at Cisco, Panduit1, and Rockwell Automation that follow the Cisco Validated Design (CVD) program. The content of CPwE, which is relevant to both Operational Technology (OT) and Informational Technology (IT) disciplines, consists of documented architectures, best practices, guidance, and configuration settings to help manufacturers with design and deployment of a scalable, reliable, secure, and future-ready plant-wide industrial network Infrastructure .

A fiber optic network generally comprises multiple pieces of equipment interconnected by optical fiber cabling assemblies. The fiber channel is the fiber optic connection between one piece of equipment and another and includes the entire fiber a ssembly. Each channel consists of a pair of fibers that form an individual
