Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
With digital transformation and the evolving trends of IoT, a sub-segment known as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) or Industry 4.0 has emerged over the years, focusing heavily on interconnectivity, automation and machine learning.
This megatrend is driving new standards in wired connectivity for industrial automation and smart factories, which has pushed the bar for reliable and efficient communication among machines in connected manufacturing companies.
Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE)
With the growing demand for fast and reliable transmission of data, SPE was designed to meet the needs of industrial manufacturing users, who were concerned with connecting to low-speed devices such as sensors, relays and other applications. SPE provides reliable power to sensors and delivers high-performance transmission of data through Ethernet over a single pair of wires from applications to cloud.
