L-Com Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) Bulk Cables

Introduction

L-Com Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) Bulk Cables are industrial Ethernet cables designed for flexible, custom-length installations. Their unterminated construction allows installers to route cable runs as needed and add compatible connectors or terminations on site.

Part Description

These SPE bulk cables use a single twisted pair for Ethernet connectivity, supporting streamlined industrial networking where compact cable routing is important. They feature SF/TP double shielding to help protect data signals in electrically noisy environments.

The cables use a green PUR outer jacket that is resistant to UV exposure and oil, making them suitable for demanding indoor, outdoor, and industrial locations. Available options include 26 AWG and 22 AWG conductor sizes, 10 m and 50 m cable lengths, and outer diameters of 3.9 mm, 5.3 mm, or 5.4 mm. Because they are supplied without connectors, they can be cut, terminated, and integrated into application-specific wiring assemblies.

Applications

• Industrial Ethernet network installation
• Direct connections between industrial devices
• Field-installed SPE connector assemblies
• Sensor and actuator communications
• Automation cabinet wiring
• Machine-to-machine networking
• Outdoor industrial communication links
• Custom cable harness and retrofit projects
• Distributed control system connections
• Compact Ethernet cable routing in equipment

Industries

• Industrial automation
• Manufacturing
• Factory equipment and machinery
• Process control
• Robotics
• Transportation and rail systems
• Energy and utilities
• Building automation
• Agricultural automation
• Outdoor infrastructure and communications

Usage Ideas

1. Machine Sensor Network
   Cut and terminate SPE cable runs to connect sensors and controllers throughout a production machine.

2. Outdoor Automation Enclosure
   Use the UV- and oil-resistant PUR-jacketed cable to link a field enclosure with a nearby control cabinet.

3. Custom Robotics Harness
   Build a compact, shielded Ethernet harness for communication between robotic modules, motors, and control electronics.

Conclusion

L-Com Single Pair Ethernet Bulk Cables provide a flexible solution for custom industrial Ethernet installations. Their unterminated format, double shielding, and durable PUR jacket make them well suited for environments requiring reliable cable routing, field termination, and resistance to outdoor or industrial exposure.
