Single Pair Ethernet (SPE): T1 Industrial Style interface available in M12 housing / space-saving, resource-protecting infrastructure ready for the field / IP65/67 protection and optimal screening for secure transmission from the cloud to the sensor

Seamless Ethernet communication via data networks from the cloud to the sensor/actuator level describes nothing less than the implementation of Industry 4.0. The T1 Industrial Style interface to IEC 63171-6 is also available in a sturdy M12 housing with immediate effect.

End-to-end Ethernet from the cloud to the sensor has not been economically viable to date given the lack of suitable infrastructure. Single Pair Ethernet has now closed that gap. The significant reduction in cables and connectors saves space, spares resources and facilitates applications in the field that were previously only possible with traditional signal wiring. SPE can accommodate significantly more sensors, thereby enabling more data to be captured from the field. As a result, operators can obtain a much more detailed picture of their processes and are much better placed to make improvements.

With immediate effect, HARTING is also offering its T1 Industrial Style interface, to the international standard IEC 63171-6, also in a sturdy M12 fully metal housing. With IP 65/67 protection and reliable 360° screening, SPE can now be deployed in challenging environments.
