Somfy Sonesse 40 PoE Type 4 SDN Motor -- single-cable power and data over Ethernet
The Sonesse 40 PoE bt 6/25 Type 4 motor is the highest-torque PoE option in the Sonesse 40 line, drawing both power and control data from a single network cable for heavier interior shades in fully networked commercial buildings.
Benefits
- Single CAT5e/CAT6 Ethernet cable delivers both power (75W, PoE Type 4) 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 bt 6/25 Type 4 motor?
It is Somfy's 6 Nm Sonesse 40 tubular motor that runs on Power over Ethernet. One CAT-5e or higher cable carries both power and control data, so interior shades and projection screens need no separate line-voltage run at the window.
What torque and speed does part 1241428 deliver?
Somfy rates part 1241428 at 6 Nm of torque and 25 rpm. It draws 62 W in operation and 1 W on standby, and Somfy lists a noise level of 43 dB.
What roller tube does it fit?
Somfy lists a minimum tube inside diameter of 38 mm (1.46 in) and an outside motor diameter of 1.39 in. For 40 mm tubes, pair it with the 40mm Octagonal Tube (1781154) and an LS40 crown and drive set such as 9016654 or 9016655.
What network hardware do I need to power it?
Plan for a PoE switch or injector port that supplies Type 4 (802.3bt) power over a CAT-5e or higher cable. Somfy lists an input range of 42.5V to 57V at the motor, with a rated current of 1.1 A.
How does it connect to a control system?
The motor carries the Somfy Synergy API, which lets a third-party control system talk to it with no added Somfy interface. Somfy names Control4, Crestron, ELAN, Clare, URC, RTI and Josh.ai, and secures traffic with a certificate, PIN code and AES-128 encryption.
Is there a PoE model with less torque for lighter shades?
Yes. The Sonesse 40 PoE 4/25 Type 3 (1241427) delivers 4 Nm, and the 2/25 Type 2 (1241426) delivers 2 Nm. Both share this motor's 25 rpm speed and single-cable design, and they draw less power from the switch.
