Single Pair Ethernet

Les entreprises sont confrontées à un dilemme coûteux : remplacer le câblage existant ou tirer parti de l'infrastructure existante. La technologie Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) concilie la modernisation numérique avec les contraintes physiques des bâtiments existants.

La technologie SPE permet le trafic IP et l'alimentation via une seule paire torsadée de cuivre jusqu'à 1 000 mètres. Il garantit les performances de la VoIP, isole les réseaux voix et réduit les coûts de rénovation des bâtiments.

Single Pair Ethernet in Industries

SPE is specifically tailored to address the pain points faced by industries, including healthcare, transportation, hospitality and manufacturing.

The criticality of DECT

Healthcare environments depend on reliable staff mobility, making DECT the standard for secure, interference-free voice communication. As hospitals adopt IP-DECT, large building layouts create challenges with long distances between base stations and technical rooms. SPE enables connections up to 1,000 meters, avoiding complex intermediate installations. IP-DECT also requires highly precise synchronization for seamless handovers, which is sensitive to network jitter. With its stable, fixed-latency link, SPE ensures better synchronization and more reliable emergency communications.

Critical connectivity and retrofit

Transport infrastructures such as railway stations, airports, and seaports cover vast areas, making standard Ethernet distance limits a major constraint. The same challenge applies within vehicles like ships, where physical conditions complicate IP communication upgrades. SPE enables connectivity up to 1,000 meters, allowing deployment of IP-DECT base stations, IP phones, and intercoms over long distances without adding costly technical rooms. In the maritime sector, strict safety and environmental regulations further limit infrastructure changes. By reusing existing onboard cabling, SPE simplifies modernization while avoiding structural modifications and reducing installation complexity.

The "connected room" without renovation

Hotels and serviced residences must digitize the guest experience while dealing with aging infrastructure and minimizing room downtime. Renovations are often complex and costly, especially in historic buildings where closing rooms leads to revenue loss. SPE offers a non-invasive, zero-downtime solution that can be installed between guest stays without disruption. With 10 Mbps per room, SPE supports IP telephony, Wi-Fi access points, and HD IPTV simultaneously. This reliable, wired connection enhances the customer experience by ensuring stable, high-quality services without Wi-Fi interruptions.

Factory 4.0 and harsh environments

Manufacturing and process industries are evolving toward Industry 4.0, requiring reliable, real-time communication across large and often harsh environments. Legacy systems like analog fieldbuses and simple copper wiring limit this transformation, especially in complex sites with noise and ATEX constraints. SPE enables a unified network by directly connecting sensors, IIoT devices, and industrial communication tools to the IP infrastructure. This eliminates the need for costly protocol conversion gateways and simplifies deployment. SPE also supports ATEX-compliant devices, ensuring safe and reliable communication even in explosive or sensitive areas.
