Extend data and power to the edge of OT networks
The new physical layer technology transforming communications for automation devices.
Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) is quite simply Ethernet transmission over a balanced pair of conductors. 10Mb/s SPE does some unique things that make it possible to bring Ethernet to the edge of OT networks. IEEE 802.3cg-2019™ standardizes SPE which is designed for 10Mb/s transmission speeds over a balanced pair of conductors. The IEEE standard defines two PHYs - 10BASE-T1L and 10BASE-T1S - which provide SPE communications.
“The benefits SPE can bring to building and industrial automation are exciting. SPE is a vital next-generation technology which stands to help industry achieve better business outcomes through the continuation of convergence across the enterprise.”
– Brett Lane, CTO at Panduit
Single Pair Ethernet is a transmission technology built and standardized by IEEE to replace built-for-purpose serial communications.

The IEC 63171 Type 1 connector is the SPE connector of choice for IP20 applications.
Compared to using traditional field buses, using an Ethernet architecture simplifies system implementations since a single software framework can be used from the lowest to the highest speed ranges.

The new line of Panduit SPE products give customers long-distance reach, simple integration, fast and repeatable installation, and long-term reliability. The first products to market include a shielded connector and single pair cable. These products enable customers in a variety of markets to take advantage of the benefits of Single Pair Ethernet.
“Single-Pair Ethernet is a new-to-the-world technology that is a game-changer for building systems cabling, where the bandwidth requirements aren’t as demanding as data communications but there is still a need for a single network to support many disparate systems.”
– Lindsey Parker, Manager, Business Development at Panduit
Single Pair Ethernet is a technology purpose-built for Operational Technology, providing seamless communications all the way to the sensor. Adopting SPE has the following advantages for industrial clients:
Single Pair Ethernet technology will provide the following benefits to Building Automation clients:
