Industry Update: Modernizing Legacy Infrastructure Seamlessly
In tandem with joining us, Altronix has shared a practical path forward for older facilities facing modernization challenges. Rather than undergoing the disruptive and expensive process of ripping out existing two-wire infrastructure, their newly expanded portfolio of Pace™ T1L Media Converters and Switches offers a way to leverage existing Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) cabling to network BACnet-compliant IIoT devices.
By enabling reliable 10Base-T1L data and power transmissions at distances up to 1,000 meters, this technology effectively removes the primary infrastructure barriers holding back comprehensive building management and HVAC retrofits.
