Digi-Key Electronics, which offers a large selection of electronic components in stock for immediate shipment, will host a joint webinar in partnership with SparkFun, Würth Elektronik, HARTING and Analog Devices on Wednesday, June 8, at 11 a.m. CDT titled “Remotely Monitor Equipment in a Challenging Environment with Single-Pair Ethernet.”

Single-Pair Ethernet (SPE) can significantly improve the ability to acquire and transmit data quickly and reliably, representing a major leap in technology to support industrial automation and other automation applications.

This presentation will cover:

  • What SPE is and the benefits it offers
  • Applications and case studies for SPE within the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and industrial automation
  • A demonstration of new SPE rapid prototyping tools to remotely monitor vibration and motor control in a challenging environment

As a bonus, the demo will take participants into the depths of the SparkFun headquarters to take a look at the river that runs under the building – which certainly requires monitoring.

“We are looking forward to highlighting SparkFun’s just-announced Single-Pair Ethernet function board, which is now part of the MicroMod ecosystem for rapid prototyping and development,” said David Sandys, director of technical marketing at Digi-Key. “This leading-edge solution has great potential for IIoT and industrial applications in challenging environments, and I’m excited to highlight the expertise from several of Digi-Key’s valued suppliers on how SPE can be leveraged.”

Presenters will include Kirk Benell, chief technology officer at SparkFun; Joachim Finke, head of global product management (network interface connectivity) at HARTING Group; Martin Leihenseder, senior specialist signal and communications, Würth Elektronik; and Fiona Treacy, marketing manager at Analog Devices.
