Somfy Sonesse 40 PoE Type 3 SDN Motor -- single-cable power and data over Ethernet
The Sonesse 40 PoE bt 4/25 Type 3 motor runs on Power over Ethernet, drawing both power and control data from a single network cable. At 4Nm it covers a wider range of interior shades than the Type 2, while keeping the same slim Sonesse 40 body.
Benefits
- Single CAT5e/CAT6 Ethernet cable delivers both power (60W, PoE Type 3) 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 3 motor?
Part 1241427 is a Somfy Sonesse 40 motor that draws power and control data from one Ethernet cable. It suits interior shades and screens in buildings wired for a network, with no separate line-power run.
What torque and speed does it deliver?
Somfy rates it at 4 Nm of torque and 25 rpm, with a noise level of 39 dB. That is more lifting power than the Type 2 model in the same slim Sonesse 40 body.
What network wiring does it need?
Run one CAT-5e or better cable from a PoE switch, up to 328 feet away, to the motor's RJ45 connection. Somfy lists a 48V PoE supply with an operating range of 42.5V to 57V and 1 W on standby.
Which tubes and hardware fit it?
It fits tubes with an inside diameter of 1.46 in or larger. Matching parts on this page include the LS40 Rubberized Crown and Drive Set (9016654), the LS40 Octagonal Rubberized Crown and Drive Set (9016655) and the 40mm Octagonal Tube (1781154).
Which control systems can talk to it?
The motor includes the Somfy Synergy API for direct integration with third-party control systems, with no added Somfy control hardware. Somfy notes it does not work with PoE Touch Panels.
Is there a lighter-duty PoE option?
Yes. For smaller shades, the Sonesse 40 PoE Type 2 (1241426) uses the same single-cable design at 2.5 Nm and 25 rpm, with a lower power draw.
