How this entity was disambiguated

This entity first appeared as the object of triple T4384935 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

NED1 Entity disambiguation (via context triple) gpt-5-mini-2025-08-07

Target entity: CoE (CAN application protocol over EtherCAT)
Context triple: [EtherCAT, supports, CoE (CAN application protocol over EtherCAT)]

A. EtherCAT
EtherCAT is a high-performance industrial Ethernet protocol designed for real-time control in automation systems.
B. Sercos III
Sercos III is a real-time industrial Ethernet communication standard widely used for high-performance motion control and automation systems.
C. CAN bus
