Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) for Rugged Applications
With the introduction of several new Ethernet standards, factory automation programs utilizing Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) connectivity now have expanded capabilities to communicate in the same language from sensors and input devices, all the way up to the cloud. Whether the requirement is for a single twisted pair up to 1km away (10BASE-T1L) , or a 10GBASE-T connection (Cat6A) carrying real time inspection data over a four pair connection, Amphenol has a full range of Industrial Ethernet connectors to reliably help carry the load.
Amphenol offers a range of interconnect and cable assembly products which support Power over Ethernet (PoE) or Power over Data Line (PoDL), so that remote devices can be powered through the same connection that carries the signals.
