Why use 10BASE-T1S instead of CAN?

10BASE-T1S or 10SPE (10 Mbps Single Pair Ethernet) is a network technology specified in the IEEE 802.3cg standard. Designed for short-range use, 10SPE uses a single twisted pair of unshielded wires and has a cost level close to CAN / FlexRay but much faster baud rates. The technology aims to reduce in-vehicle network complexity while facilitating a smooth integration into existing Ethernet networks already in today’s vehicles. Read on to understand some of the differences between 10BASE-T1S and traditional CAN topologies.
