Single Pair Ethernet all-in-one for Smart Buildings

Much has been said about the vision of Single Pair Ethernet (SPE). Now it's getting real. The implementation of Single Pair Ethernet in buildings and data networks begins.

Planners, project managers and installers are asking where they can buy the hardware for Single Pair Ethernet. Reichle & De-Massari (R&M) manufactures already the complete SPE channel: Patch cords, connectors, jacks, and cables.

Customers can get everything they need for Single Pair Ethernet installation and Smart Building wiring from a single source.

In this video, R&M shows the building blocks of the complete Single Pair Ethernet solution. You can see the details of SPE connectivity. It answers the question of how SPE connectors and SPE adapters are wired.

R&M is the leading manufacturer to provide a complete SPE channel according to the IEC 63171 standard. For building applications, R&M recommends the LC-Cu connector format in accordance with IEC 63171-1. For industrial applications, the MSP connector is recommended in accordance with IEC 63171-2.

R&M opts for Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) termination in both connector systems. Proven a million times over, this solution for wiring the stranded wires offers permanent contact reliability and reliable performance. R&M is the leader in IDC technology.

Compatible.

R&M's Single Pair Ethernet products are compatible with the existing Freenet portfolio for structured cabling. They fit into outlets and 19'' panels from R&M. Which means R&M guarantees a complete end-to-end SPE connection from a single source. It is perfect for linking up the entire building automation system.

R&M provides support for interested customers in planning, proof of concept, evaluation, and training. The common goal is the successful application of Single Pair Ethernet in Smart Buildings. R&M also offers the delivery of pre-assembled SPE systems.

SPE - a revolutionary technology.

Single Pair Ethernet is a key factor in the network integration of smart buildings via structured cabling. SPE enables barrier-free data flow from the sensor/actuator level to the cloud. Without the need to migrate between fieldbus and Ethernet/IP.

Countless devices can now be connected to the Internet via miniaturized connectors and a single twisted pair cable. SPE can even power the devices. It supports bandwidths up to 1000 Mbit/s and offers several other advantages.
