ORIGINAL
PUSH-PULLYOUR CONFIGURABLE SOLUTIONSOver the years Ethernet has continually progressed in speed, security and quality to meet evolving
network requirements; it has become the universal wired connectivity of choice across most industries, including IT, telecommunication, transportation and defense.
The emergence of the Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) is now driving adoption of the Ethernet in the automotive industry as well as in industrial automation.
LEMO has been following this evolution and released solutions over time complying with the various
Ethernet protocols as they emerged. It therefore has one of the most comprehensive portfolios of connectors for High-speed Ethernet up to 10 Gb/s, and recently included solutions for SPE.
These products were specifically designed to work in demanding environments (e.g. extreme temperature, high humidity, vibration) for a broad spectrum of applications.

Main customer benefits of LEMO’s SPE solutions
Proprietary interface¹
to carry sensitive information
in total security in harsh environments

Up to 5000 mating cycles guaranteed providing
longer service life & optimized cost of ownership
Push-Pull latching systemenabling simple/quick yet safeand reliable frequent connect and disconnect

Guaranteed signal integrity and compliance
to IEEE 802.3bp (SPE) protocol enabling
to transmit data up to 1 Gb/s

Broad range of robust and miniature models,including IP68 mated providing lasting compactintegrations

360° screening for full EMC shielding¹ These LEMO specific connectors can transmit data using the SPE protocol, but they are not Ethernet-standard connectors.
Their proprietary interface is compliant with the Ethernet specifications and can be used for 1 Gb/s applications.

Single Pair Ethernet (SPE)
Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) enables transmission of data via Ethernet at speedsof up to 1 Gb/s with just one pair of wires instead of 4.
One single pair brings numerous advantages:• Bi-directional data transfer• Simpler, smaller and lighter installation via only one pair of wires• Lower acquisition costs for new installations• More bending cycles and tighter bending radius possible for cabling
LEMO released SPE proprietary connectors in 2019 with 1 and 2 SPE pairs.
These miniature connectors are used, for example, in Automotive Testing torepeatedly connect and disconnect sensors, actuators, radar and cameras tothe vehicle’s main control systems.

High-speed interconnect solutions
Selecting a SPE connector does not automatically guarantee compliance tothis protocol and the related data transfer speed for the complete Interconnect
solution. In fact, the cable has to at least comply to the same protocol, respect
the maximum length given in the protocol and be carefully assembled to theconnector; the solution has then to be fully tested.
