> I'm more hopeful for single-pair ethernet to gain momentum though!
replyI keep looking for a reasonably priced 10baseT to 10Base-T1L bridge... everything commercial seems too expensive (for me) and the two hobby designs [1] [2] I've seen are not orderable :(
But I'm seeing more commercial options lately, so that's hopeful.
Waiting for my ManT1S:
replyI really wish there was a camera option. You’d have made wired doorbell cameras possible without a retrofit.
replyI’d buy in a heartbeat
SPE with multidrop and PoDL would be awesome ! They are working on that and it will be everywhere.
replyMultidrop SPE isn't going to outperform newer CAN versions though. Somewhere in the sub-100Mb/s (e.g. 10-20Mb/s range) is the practical maximum speed of a multidrop bus at useful lengths, and that essentially applies equally to CAN or SPE. The only way to really get faster in a "multidrop-like" sense is with logically loop-like systems like ethercat and Fibre Channel where each network segment is point-to-point and the nodes are responsible for the routing.
