Optical Fiber Cable Expo 2024 News Brief: Power Grid Systems Under the Development of IIoT
With the rise of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), many manufacturers aim to manage all the machines, control devices, actuators, and sensors in their factories under a unified system. However, this is easier said than done. Optical Fiber Cable Expo 2024 has discovered that in reality, there are many inconsistencies among systems, making communication between field devices, control systems, and enterprise levels challenging.
The advent of interconnected factories has rendered traditional bus systems incapable of handling the growing number of sensors, as well as the higher data transmission rates required in production facilities. While industrial Ethernet can accommodate some of the data transmission pressure, it cannot effectively connect to the hundreds or even thousands of individual sensors distributed throughout the production environment.
Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) has emerged as a key bridge to achieve this goal, enabling more intelligent information transfer on the production floor while ensuring consistent and reliable network communication throughout the entire automation pyramid.
SPE is a cable design that uses a single pair of twisted copper wires to transmit data at speeds of up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps). It facilitates real-time, continuous data transmission between different devices.
The design supports cable installations up to 1,000 meters in length at 10 Mbps, minimizing space requirements and simplifying installation processes.
The SPE cable design is lightweight and efficient, reducing the number of cores to two, thus allowing 1Gb Ethernet communication over a single pair of cores. This reduces component costs, decreases installation labor, and minimizes the chances of errors.
Optical Fiber Cable Expo 2024 also knows that the reduced space requirements of SPE wiring significantly lower component costs, cut down installation work, and simultaneously reduce the probability of errors.
