SPEBlox (1GBASE-T1) Module

What is SPEBlox Module?

SPEBlox Module is a tiny, embeddable, PCB mount module that converts between standard gigabit ethernet (1000BASE-T) and gigabit single pair ethernet (1000BASE-T1).

This module handles all the conversion, software, firmware and physical requirements necessary to make the conversion between the two ethernet types. This allows system integrators to effortlessly add 1000BASE-T1 (Automotive Single Pair Ethernet), with minimal work and in minimal time. 

SPEBlox Module uses similar circuitry as SPEBlox, meaning engineers can quickly test using SPEBlox, then move to the SPEBlox Module for higher volume applications.

At 30mm x 22.8mm, SPEBlox Module is small enough for integration into size and weight limited applications. SPEBlox Module uses castellated holes for direct, low-cost, low profile integration. Standard 0.1" (1.27mm) pin headers can also be used for board mating.

SPEBlox Module is also NDAA compliant, with a supply chain and manufacture location based outside of China.

Availability

SPEBlox Module is currently in development, please get in touch for the latest lead time. The current estimation for release of this board is mid-June 2025, but this may be subject to change.

CAD Files

ECAD symbol and footprint libraries will be released once the design is finalised. These files will contain the mating footprint, and pinout for this module, making for easy integration into a customer's board.

SPEBlox Module contains no components on the bottom layer, meaning it there is no need for a standoff height between it and the board below.

Pinout

The pinout of SPEBlox Module is shown below. More information will be available once the datasheet is released.
