For a typical end user, there are these options:

Modbus TCP
Modbus RTU over RS485

However, these are not applicable for synchronized motion control.

The other options like Ethernet POWERLINK, EtherCAT and CANopen are much more suitable but these are restricted to internal use (and a few very advanced users). The documentation and configuration of these I/O drivers is still far from production status. The same holds for PROFINET and Sercos, which are available through additional hardware (Hilscher cards).

Do you have some specific motor driver in mind?

For EtherCAT master, you do not need any additional hardware. For CANopen you do. We use PEAK miniPCI CAN interface cards.
