Somfy Sonesse 40 PoE Type 2 SDN Motor -- single-cable power and data over Ethernet
The Sonesse 40 PoE bt 2/25 Type 2 motor is powered and controlled over a single Ethernet cable using Power over Ethernet, simplifying commercial installs that are already wired for network infrastructure. It shares the slim, small-diameter-tube body of the Sonesse 40 platform.
Benefits
- Single CAT5e/CAT6 Ethernet cable delivers both power (30W, PoE Type 2) and data -- no separate line-power run needed
- Direct third-party integration via the Somfy Synergy API, no added control hardware required
- Fits tubes with 38mm (1.46") or larger internal diameter
- Thin round head available in white, black, or grey to match hardware
- Shielded RJ45 female coupler included for high-ESD applications (dual-roll, zebra shades)
- Ideal for large commercial installs already wired for structured Ethernet

Common questions
What is the Sonesse 40 PoE Type 2 motor?
Part 1241426 is a tubular shade motor that takes both power and data over one Ethernet cable from a PoE switch. It suits commercial projects already wired for a structured network and shares the slim Sonesse 40 body. Somfy backs it with a 5-year warranty.
What torque and speed does it deliver?
Somfy rates part 1241426 at 2.5 Nm of torque and 25 rpm. It runs at 39 dB, uses 25 W in operation and 1 W on standby, and weighs 1.87 lb. The round motor head comes in white, with black and grey options.
What does it need from the network?
It runs on Power over Ethernet at 42.5 V to 57 V and 0.55 A, from a switch port rated for Type 2 (30W) power. Somfy lists cable runs of up to 328 feet from the PoE switch. Each motor ships with a shielded RJ45 female to female coupler (9028957).
What size roller tube does it fit?
Somfy lists a minimum tube inside diameter of 1.46 in. Matching parts in this store include the 40mm Octagonal Tube (1781154), crown and drive sets 9012224, 9016654 and 9016655, and the RollEase SkyLine motor plate (9026003) with bracket set 9016325.
Which controls work with this motor?
Third-party control systems connect to it through the Somfy Synergy API. Somfy lists CoAP and TCP/TLS communication with AES-128 encryption. The motor has no RTS radio, so RTS remotes and wall switches will not pair with it.
Are there other Sonesse 40 control options?
Yes. The Sonesse 40 RS485 404S2 (1240562) runs on the Somfy Digital Network with 120V power at the window. The Sonesse 40 406A2 Zigbee 3.0 motor (1245921) suits projects that want wireless control through a Somfy TaHoma switch.
