Single Pair Ethernet is an evolution of Ethernet technology that will revolutionize data accessibility and device control in building and industrial automation applications. Building on the ubiquity of Ethernet for communications, Single Pair Ethernet can replace legacy serial controls, delivering more bandwidth at a greater distance, plus power to enable digital transformation. An ideal interface, it supports legacy technologies while enabling migration to the future.
Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) standards allow Ethernet communication and powering over a single twisted pair of conductors – which is expected to replace serial and analog communications in operational equipment. Experts believe this transition from traditional fieldbus to SPE will happen over the next 5-10 years. In this paper, learn how property owners and developers can begin to prepare for that transition today using SPE infrastructure to support legacy applications.
