Belden Inc. (NYSE: BDC), a leading global provider of complete connection solutions, today announced the launch of new products and software enhancements designed to help customers build more efficient, resilient and secure IT/OT networks—spanning fiber infrastructure, industrial connectivity, network management and access control.
Operational Technology (OT) networks across transportation, energy and manufacturing are being asked to do more: capture more field data, support faster response and connect more remote assets – without compromising uptime, predictable performance or security. Belden’s latest rugged infrastructure launches are designed to help operators start in OT and scale to IT with secure, edge-to-core connectivity in harsh, distributed environments:
- Belden LioN-X IO-Link Masters deliver rugged digital machine-mount sensor connectivity for distributed industrial I/O, reducing cabinet wiring complexity while improving device visibility, diagnostics and real-time data access at the edge.
- Hirschmann IT DAP849 Wireless Access Points add Wi-Fi 6 capabilities in an IP67 enclosure with two fiber uplinks to support longer-distance connectivity and reliable performance in harsh, high electromagnetic interference environments.
- Hirschmann GREYHOUND GRS2000 L2/L3 Switches provide high-density rugged switching with backbone connectivity up to 10 GE to support network expansion and future-ready industrial infrastructure.
- Belden Virtual Firewall TBF-800V defends against OT-targeted cyber threats while maintaining the network uptime that OT environments demand.
Across transportation, energy and manufacturing industries, these four innovations work as a system: connecting field data where it’s created, moving it reliably across the OT environment and protecting it as it reaches the IT layer. The result is a modernized edge-to-core OT network with better visibility, broader connectivity and more secure IT/OT convergence.
Additional new products and enhancements include:
- Belden FiberExpress XHD Fiber Angled Patch Panel
- Hirschmann Industrial HiVision Version 8.7 – New features
- macmon NAC 6.5.0 and 6.6.0 – New features
