Industry 4.0 means handling the ever-growing data volumes in production through networking and digitalization. Over the years, this has led to fundamental technological changes to data cables culminating in the new Single Pair Ethernet technology. What are the biggest changes? What are the most important benefits of the new C-track-capable SPE cables? Key facts about Single Pair Ethernet technology - Universality: Cabling and network standard, with which - e.g. sensors or actuators communicate and can be supplied with power in parallel by means of PoDL. - Standardization: Through its uniform cable structure and its standardized transfer protocols (TCP/IP), Single Pair Ethernet technology makes integration into existing networks much easier. - Space-saving and economic: Data and power are transferred via a single pair of wires - High compatibility: Extended application range thanks to easy integration into existing networks - Performance via a pair of wires

The good news is that the further development of Ethernet transmission technology and PoE power supply with currently up to 90 W also creates new applications with Ethernet interfaces. In addition, there is a growing need for uniform, lean transmission technology, both in terms of the transmission protocol and the hardware, connectors and cabling. Ideally, right down to the field level to the sensors and actuators. This should be possible with Single Pair Ethernet (SPE). With the start in the automotive industry, the technology begins to find its way into industry and, in the long term, into buildings. The SPE topic has been known for some time and since the SPS 2019 trade fair at the latest, it has made itself felt in all media. As an innovative manufacturer for high quality in the field of contact technology and connecting elements in the market segments of industrial electronics, data and communication technology as well as in building technology, we at METZ CONNECT also deal with single pair Ethernet technology. Be it in devices, control cabinets, systems or infrastructure, both in industry and in buildings. Based on market knowledge, we assume that the first SPE applications will develop in industry. METZ CONNECT begins the first step with premium membership in the Single Pair Ethernet Industrial Partner Network. We are one of more than 30 strong partners to support the IEC 63171-6 connectors. We look forward to actively working in the SPE Industrial Partner Network. In Single Pair Ethernet we see a groundbreaking technology for the development of further Ethernet-capable end devices, sensors and actuators, be it at the field level in industry or in smart buildings.

Our contribution as a member of the SPE network is to establish the SPE technology on the international market and to initiate new fields of application in the different industries. For this purpose SAB Bröckskes has developed a complete product range for various applications: CATLine SPE C-Track Single-Pair-Ethernet cable, suitable for cable tracks CATLine SPE Robot Single-Pair-Ethernet cable, suitable for robots CATLine SPE HT Single-Pair-Ethernet cable, high temperature resistant CATLine SPE Rugged Single-Pair-Ethernet cable for robust indoor and outdoor use CATLine SPE Rail Single-Pair-Ethernet cable for railway applications

The Smart Cabinet Building Initiative is a joint project of Weidmüller, Komax, Zuken, Armbruster Engineering and nVent Hoffman / Steinhauer. Its aim is to offer holistic solutions for the digitalization of control cabinet construction by networking technology and know-how across all process steps. These solutions range from component selection to pre-assembly and wiring to testing based on the data from the digital twin of the control cabinet and its wiring. This digital twin is supplied by the E3.series software for planning the electrical, pneumatic and hydraulic control technology. The data generated with the E3.series applications is used directly to control the digitally controlled control cabinet processing and assembly.
