What should we do regarding preparations for the employment of Single Pair Ethernet? Can we benefit from Single Pair Ethernet networks right now? Is it possible to make a smooth transition from existing legacy technologies to the bright future ahead?
In this whitepaper, our Working Group Cables investigates how new Single Pair Ethernet cables can be used to carry legacy bus protocols (Foundation Fieldbus, Profibus PA and PB, RS485, BacNet, Modbus, Canbus) and to what extent old cables are able to function within future SPE communication networks.
