Industrial SPE Connectors and Cable Assemblies afford the standard T1 industrial interface and single-twisted-pair cabling to make Ethernet connectivity easy and affordable, support miniaturization and enable the transmission of data from the cloud to devices and sensors.
Faster Data Speeds
Single-pair Ethernet setups enable data transmission by Ethernet using only two wires and simultaneous power supply for terminals via PoDL up to 50W. Being able to integrate Ethernet interfaces with simple sensors, cameras, reading/ID devices or similar equipment makes implementation of integrated industry and IIoT possible.
End-to-End TCP/IP-Based Communication
Standardized T1 SPE connectivity enables smart technology at the field level and simplifies parameter setting, initialization and programming. As a result, the set-up, operation and maintenance of equipment becomes more efficient and more cost-effective.
Until now, two twin wires for fast Ethernet (100 MB) or 4 twin wires for Gigabit of Ethernet were necessary to achieve high-speed data-rate transmission. Molex’s T1 SPE Connector System and Cable Assemblies enable the transmission of data by Ethernet using only two wires and the simultaneous power supply for terminals via power over data line (PoDL) up to 50W.
Manufacturers are increasingly reliant on the internet of things (IoT) and the industrial internet of things (IIoT) to run their production facilities. To optimize the benefits of IIoT, a cost-effective and reliable method for integrating sensors/actuators from the field to the cloud is crucial. Therefore, a continuous and future-proof network philosophy is needed.
