Visitors to the Belden booth (number 120 in Hall 10) will be able to experience Belden's vision of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). In “The Journey to the IIoT,” Belden will demonstrate how Belden automation networks will evolve in the future, from on-site applications to control rooms.
Belden will also highlight how time-sensitive networks (TSNs) are key to the future and how they can be deployed as a key technology in automation networks, in a visualization of how such networks can be configured and monitored.
In addition, the Belden team will highlight several new products and technologies from its Belden, Hirschmann and Lumberg Automation product portfolio, designed to improve the productivity of your industrial systems and machines.
Featured products include:
MSP40 Full Gigabit MICE Power Switch
The latest addition to the Hirschmann MSP family. A fully modular, best-in-class 28-port Gigabit DIN rail switch (featuring four 2.5 Gigabit uplink ports) with Layer 2 and Layer 3 functionality for maximum efficiency and flexibility.
Industrial HiVision 7.0 Network Management Software:
Industrial HiVision is a network management application for configuring and monitoring Hirschmann and GarrettCom products, as well as SNMP-enabled products from any other manufacturer. This latest version includes features that simplify the management of larger networks. The network dashboard displays key performance and security indicators, providing a comprehensive overview of the network at a glance. Automatic backups of switch configurations can be created at predefined intervals. The network security status screen has been expanded to include more security-related parameters.
OWL LTE and OWL LTE M12 Industrial Mobile Routers:
These new OWL industrial mobile routers offer advanced remote access capabilities with enhanced security features and more addressing capabilities in a single product. The rich set of hardware and software features is ideal for applications in IT and communications, industrial automation, security, energy, geographically dispersed monitoring centers, mobile machinery, and transportation.
• OWL LTE Industrial Mobile “Router”
A one-box solution designed for wireless mobile network communications using LTE, HSPA+, UMTS, EDGE or GPRS technologies.
• OWL LTE M12 Industrial Mobile Router:
An extremely reliable remote access solution for railway applications using LTE, UMTS, or GSM technologies. Features integrated GPS and location determination for innovative navigation/positioning and GSM calling via Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).
BAT867-R Wireless Access Points:
The new BAT867-R represents a technological innovation (IEEE 802.11ac) and offers an optimal price-performance ratio for various applications and markets.
Key advantages include a high-performance dual-band (2.4 GHz/5 GHz) wireless LAN access point/client with IEEE 802.11ac, a very compact form factor, and ease of installation.
MachFlex Wiring Solutions:
A new line of robust and flexible machine cables designed by Belden to meet the growing need for smaller, more compact, and highly system-driven machines. MachFlex cables are small in size, saving installation space, yet highly durable, meeting the flexibility, physical, and mechanical requirements of machine builders, their customers, and end users.
ECE R 118 Industrial Ethernet Cable:
A newly launched range of industrial Ethernet cables that meet the stringent EU standard for high fire protection requirements for cables installed in buses, ECE R 118.01. The Category 5e and 7 cables are designed to handle large volumes of data and are the best solutions for bus manufacturers, installers, and suppliers alike.
MIPP Preterminated MPO Cassette:
As network connectivity needs rapidly evolve toward quick and easy deployment, the new MIPP preterminated MPO cassette supports the next level of network availability required for industrial applications. The 100% factory-finished and tested MIPP MPO cassette offers a ready-to-use solution with flexibility that hasn't come at the expense of any other requirements, requiring no assembly, disassembly, or polishing during installation. The MIPP MPO cassette ensures efficient, fast, and reliable single-person installation and allows for rapid network reconfiguration in the event of relocations, additions, and changes.
Powering LioN into the
Lumberg Automation On-Site I/O System: Lumberg Automation continues to expand its on-site LioN-powered I/O system with a family of I/O modules in an all-in-one multi-protocol solution that supports PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and EtherCAT protocols for industrial automation environments. Previously, separate modules for PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and EtherCAT were required—three products with very different power components.
Now, the LioN-powered active I/O module family can support all three protocols in a single multi-protocol I/O module.
• On-Site LioN Power Controller: Distribution Control Unit (UCS)
The UCS allows users to handle simple tasks, freeing up PLC workload while reducing bus communication. The first LioN-powered UCS model is based on the free software LDMicro and has eight digital and physical inputs and eight digital outputs.
• LioN Power Digital I/O Modules: Protocol Extension with EtherCAT.
LioN's active digital power I/O multiprotocol solution now includes the EtherCAT industrial Ethernet protocol, setting new standards for real-time performance and topological flexibility. Combined with L-coded M12 power connectors, Lumberg Automation's multiprotocol solution offers machine builders significant cost savings in both the short and long term.
• LioN Power IO-Link Master Ports: Protocol Extension with EtherNet/IP.
IO-Link master ports have always been multifunctional I/O ports. Each port can be used as a digital input, digital output, or IO-Link port. LioN Power makes IO-Link master ports universal by adding EtherNet/IP as a second industrial Ethernet protocol to a line of universal multiprotocol IO-Link master ports, available in various housings and connectors.
• Single-cable LioN powered IO-Link automation master ports: M12 hybrid connectivity.
Single-cable LioN powered hybrid automation modules reduce installation time and simplify connectivity by integrating the design and functionality of the new M12 hybrid Y-encoding power supply products and bus operation. These I/O modules are ideal for an active machine I/O solution, even in the tightest installation spaces.
M12 Hybrid Y-Coding Power Connectors and Cable Sets.
The new M12 8-pin hybrid Y-coding connectors provide an interface for the simultaneous transfer of power up to 2 x 6 A and data at Fast Ethernet speeds up to 100 Mbit/s in a single cable set. Designed in accordance with the IEC 61076-2-113 Y-coding standard, these products feature comprehensive shielding, mechanical strength, and high-pressure water protection up to IP69K. This is the first M12 hybrid connector to receive UL 2238 certification.
M8 5-pole B-coded series with snap-in or screw-in accessories.
The M8 5-pole B-coded series combines industry-proven technology with small M8 interfaces. Its compact size allows for installation in space-constrained and weight-restricted applications, such as robotics and other applications with moving parts. The series' powerful design also transfers signals to today's advanced end devices that require larger signal inputs and outputs on sensors and small electronic units.
