Articles and background information on the topic
Every day, sensors around the world generate billions of pieces of data - and the trend is rising. Single-pair Ethernet (SPE) technology offers new opportunities to transmit these data streams reliably and quickly in the smallest areas of the machine. Igus presented the SPE cable chainflex CFBUS.PUR.042 at SPS 2019.
