FAQ

100BASE-T1 means Automotive Ethernet with a data transmission rate of 100 Mbps via a pair of cores.

Automotive Ethernet means Ethernet for vehicles with the goal of standardizing the data transmission in the on-board power system. Automotive Ethernet is a core technology for the realization of the future on-board power system.

The transmission of Automotive Ethernet is possible under certain conditions. The protocol 100BASE-TX can be transmitted via a HSD cable, for example.

This has to be considered in individual cases by means of the application and the planned protocol.

HSD includes 4 pins and a double shielding (in standard cases), FAKRA includes 1 pin and a double shielding (in standard cases). The applicability has to be checked individually depending on the application and the protocol.

This depends on the cable used. Usually, cables up to 1 GHz or 3 GHz are quoted.

A double-wire cable can be used if two control units need to be connected with one data pair.

A four-wire cable can be used if two control units need to be connected with two data pairs under one joint shield.
