HMS Industrial Networks extends the communication capabilities of
Schneider Electric’s products and systems A rewarding partnership
“HMS and Schneider Electric have worked together for many years to solve industrial
communication issues. This has resulted in both customized solutions for Schneider Electric
as well as improvement of HMS standard product lines.
Being on the road together with Schneider Electric and talking to our mutual customers
have given us crucial feedback about how our products perform in the field and
how we can improve them. This has enabled us to develop products which help
Schneider Electric’s customers solve their connectivity needs, now and in the
future.”
