There is no doubt that Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) is the future of industrial communications.

With more complex regulations and control tasks comes greater cabling complexity and, thus, a greater impact on the availability of the entire system. Hybrid connectors – for transmitting signals, data, and power over a single cable – offer a way out of this dilemma

This white paper will provide the reader with a practical selection guide to the communication mechanisms and media for remote maintenance and remote control technology that are relevant to them.

This paper provides guidelines for antenna selection, alignment, and placement. It will explore antenna theory and recommend practical rules of thumb to use when recommending and installing antennas.

This technical brief will introduce the three ways monitoring can help achieve savings. Through practical application of monitoring, savings as a result of reliability, accountability, and efficiency are within reach.

Tinning wires could be the reason for loose connections in screw terminal blocks. While tinning does have benefits, there are better alternatives that could save you the headache of loose terminations.

Where do you find signals in industrial/semi-industrial settings? Everywhere. Generally, devices such as sensors, actuators, switches, valves, and cameras need signal connections for control and monitoring.

Power line carrier communications (PLCC) can be useful in non-critical applications. However, in applications where human safety is a priority, PLCC presents many challenges.

The M12 circular connector has made a name for itself in industrial applications – a wide variety of coding, connection, and mounting options are therefore available.
