Why are you excited about Single Pair Ethernet?

Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) is compelling to me for a variety of reasons. Imagine being able to handle Ethernet data transmission, power supply, and sending critical process information directly to the cloud over a single two-wire cable.

We can also network areas that were previously difficult to reach and implement new applications. Examples of such uses can be found in industrial automation, building automation, and the Internet of Things (IoT). SPE is therefore a door opener for innovations from which many industries can benefit.

Why does JUMO choose Single Pair Ethernet sensors?

In addition to the above reasons we are investing in SPE because we have identified it as a key technology for applications within the automation pyramid. For example: our customers can use the JUMO variTRON system to implement continuous Ethernet communication right down to the field level. In addition, SPE technology with Power over Data Line (PoDL) is ideal for supplying intelligent sensors with just one pair of wires. It is also ideal for implementing Ethernet connections over distances of up to 1000 meters, as can often be the case in climate monitoring of large warehouses or greenhouses.

Which JUMO solutions support SPE?

In addition to the well-known JUMO hydroTRANS S20 multisensor, 2 new additions have been made. The  JUMO flowTRANS MAG H20 measures the totalized flow rate of conductive media with high precision − even drop-by-drop. It can be used very flexibly in a wide range of processes. It also determines the temperature of the medium in addition to the totalized flow rate.

The JUMO DELOS S02 , on the other hand, is a small and reliable powerhouse. It is easy to configure and offers a high degree of process reliability as well as accuracy in plant applications in which the process variable pressure plays an important role. Its high protection type allows the pressure transmitter to be used in many industries.

All of the mentioned sensors have an integrated cloud gateway and can transfer the important sensor measured values directly to the JUMO Cloud via SPE interface without an additional edge gateway.

Why is JUMO a member of the Single Pair Ethernet System Alliance?

The Single Pair Ethernet System Alliance is the optimal partner for us to jointly advance the establishment of SPE. It bundles the experience of innovative technology drivers and offers a perfect platform for the exchange of expertise from a wide range of industries. Conversely, we can make an important contribution to the entire "community" with our solutions and professional knowledge. So it's a win-win situation for both sides.
