No, IO-Link is not a fieldbus, but describes a point-to-point connection between a peripheral interface and a field device.

The IO-Link is Fieldbus independent and can work with any Fieldbus system that is created.

IO-Link is a simple but powerful protocol used for point-to-point network communications standardized by IEC 61131-9, mainly used for sensors and actuators.
