SPE as a Key Technology

Single Pair Ethernet: Paving the Way for Open Automation
Barrier-Free Data Transfer with Single Pair Ethernet
Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) is an important milestone in automation: It simplifies industrial communication and enables barrier-free data transfer – from the field level to the cloud.
In contrast to conventional ETHERNET, SPE requires only a single pair of conductors and is standardized by the IEEE. This new technology has the potential to reduce the number of network transitions, enabling seamless IP communication at best.
Speed, Consistency, Cost and Space Savings
Single Pair Ethernet has many advantages and is truly multi-talented. It also supports power transmission of up to 50 watts, cable lengths of up to 1000 meters, multiple outputs in line topologies and much more. The spectrum of applications is wide – especially in open automation: WAGO has recognized the potential of SPE and is working on a consistent networking of production, process and building technology systems to harness the benefits of this technology for customers.
