SPE is very important to us

This network is driving the technology forward with determination and with a view to future challenges in automation. Jürgen Zeltwanger, Managing Director at Murrelektronik, is convinced of the development: "With SPE, we achieve integrated communication on the basis of Ethernet - from the cloud or the controller via switches to the sensors and actuators. As a connection specialist, this is naturally close to our heart".

Murrelektronik sees the trend that SPE has the potential to become the physical platform for state-of-the-art installation concepts with today's Ethernet-based fieldbus protocols such as PROFINET, Ethernet/IP (and the futures such as OPC UA TSN-FLC).  The focus is on the clearly visible cost-benefit factor.
