Abstract
A splitting unit for a single pair Ethernet (SPE) hybrid line includes an input connection element, a first output connection element, a second output connection element, and an active unit providing power and data at the second output connection element. The input connection element, the first output connection element, and the second output connection element transfer power and data. The active unit has a power sourcing equipment (PSE) connected to the input connection element and to at least one of the first output connection element and the second output connection element. The PSE taps power from a power line onto a data line.
