Molex SPE Connectors and Cable Assemblies

Molex Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE) Connectors and Cable Assemblies offer single-twisted-pair cabling with the industry standard T1 industrial interface to simplify Ethernet communication. SPE connectors and cable assemblies allow terminals to receive simultaneous power supply via PoDL up to 50W and data transmission utilizing just two wires. The SPE connectors and cable assemblies are preassembled, reducing installation time with plug-and-play connectivity. These SPE connectors and cable assemblies feature an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and a voltage rating of 60VDC. Typical applications include actuators, smart sensors, fire alarm systems, drives, and factory automation.
