Poll: How Significant is Single Pair Ethernet Technology to Engineers and the Industry?

Ethernet has been the go-to communication and network protocol in LAN applications for decades It enables the seamless data transmission via TCP/IP. But Ethernet is evolving from the 4- and 8-wire cabling systems to simpler two-wire cabling, called Single Pair Ethernet technology.

I‘m looking forward to seeing this get rolled out. For a lot of uses, the SPE at 10 Mbps is ’good enough’. I don’t need Gbps for everything. I like the idea of the 1000 meter range of it, for use in sensor…

Ethernet was always expected to expand beyond the initial implementation both for more complex and more simple connections. The initial design envisioned tapping into small computers at low data rates…

In automotive, this is the only kind of ethernet you find - the two-wire twisted pair. They want things to be light and robust in cars. The connectors are not the standard ethernet connectors, but something…

I like the idea of the 1000 meter range of it, for use in sensor networks. That’ll save me from having to install a lot of fiber optic cables. It will replace profibus and fieldbus.
