TE Connectivity Single Pair Ethernet (SPE)

TE Connectivity (TE) supports SPE as the infrastructure for IIoT. In today's world, we have many trends which provide opportunities for our customers - miniaturization of devices, increased efficiency of devices and remote power feeding. Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE) provides a single open, scalable Ethernet-based network within an automation system.

In the past, multiple wires for fast 100 Mbps ethernet and even more wires for Gbps Ethernet were required. Now with SPE only two wires are needed for data and power. (PoDL, power over data line) This significantly reduces complexity, costs and enables to go beyond existing borders.

The Raychem Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) cable provides faster data rates in a smaller, lighter solution. It is designed to be durable and versatile to operate in harsh environments applications such as commercial and military aerospace, defense, electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, and space. 

*TE Connectivity, TE Connectivity (logo) and Raychem are trademarks.
