Belden enables safer, smarter IT/OT networks
Belden has announced the launch of new products designed to provide flexible and scalable cybersecurity for operational technology environments and enhance network efficiency.
The next-gen Belden Virtual Firewall can be deployed wherever it is needed as a hardware-agnostic solution in data centre, industrial or OT environments. Designed for maximum flexibility, it enables organisations to scale security seamlessly as operations expand, architectures evolve, or risk profiles change. Three licensing tiers offer flexibility to scale protection as needs evolve; security features include deep packet inspection of OT protocols, intrusion prevention and high availability.
The new LioN-X LC Digital I/O Modules offer LioN-X benefits plus reduced Pin 1 current for lower system costs and improved efficiency. These are the first digital I/O modules launched under the Belden brand, representing a significant milestone in the company's portfolio.
