Frost & Sullivan has recognized Radiflow as Global Customer Value Leader in IT/OT Security for Smart Buildings. The importance of cybersecurity protection for smart building operations is dramatically increasing as numbers of industrial IoT devices are deployed for building automation systems and smart applications that control building operations, such as elevators, lighting and HVAC systems.
RF Code for Edge provides real-time insight and control over operational risks, costs, and compliance, with advanced security features including live video, which monitors security breaches and also has the ability to record events to prevent issues from reoccurring.
AirBorn’s Space-rated Active Optical Cable offers space and aerospace engineers all the benefits of fiber optical cables with the ease of a traditional copper cable assembly. The SAOC takes a standard copper signal and translates it to a fiber optical signal within the connector body. Further, Airborn says the SAOC reduces engineering time by eliminating need for a specialized transceiver and time spent polishing and terminating fiber.
The 5G network promises to be revolutionary. But deployment in urban areas presents many challenges. The 5 main ones are: the need for more antennas, the location of those antennas, wired connectivity, edge computing and costs.
A new market report even predicts that the global smart cities market will reach $237.6 billion by 2025, which is an 18.9% growth from 2019 to 2025. The benefits are clear: more efficient homes and buildings and improved mobility in cities, among others. The concept is good, although does present a few challenges. Looking beyond the cost, smart city implementation also requires a systemic approach.
Fiber media converters support a variety of data rates, network protocols, and cable types to enable integration of copper and fiber networks. The provide seamless integration of copper and fiber network cabling and enable cost-effective fiber distance extension.
Here are five common network TAP deployment and configuration issues every organization should be aware of and avoid: filter assignments, port mapping errors, connecting network links to tool parts, mismatched optical fiber connections, and oversubscribing ports.
CWDM stands for Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing. As the name states, it is a form of multiplexed fiber optics, so CWDM networks can send simultaneous, two-way communication. The term “coarse” refers to the wavelength spacing between channels. CWDM utilizes laser signals that differ in increments of 20 nm. A total of 18 different channels are available — with a wavelength range from 1610 nm to 1270 nm — and 8 can be utilized in a single system. Since each channel is capable of data rates of 3.125 Gbps, the aggregate ability is 10 Gbps for any CWDM cable.
We all know 5G is coming and in some places, it is already here, but what does this mean for business networks and how do we adapt to 5G networking? Connectivity is changing fast. 5G isn’t just on the way. It’s effectively here. It will be up to leading-edge companies and early adopters to take the technology from testing to widespread use, but the days of wonder how far away it is are gone. Any business with any level of connectivity demand is going to have to face this next upgrade path. It can be folded into your IoT or other data-intense projects, or you can simply futureproof. Regardless of the motivation, it’s vital to start planning today.
The global industrial Ethernet market is expected to exhibit 12.2% CAGR over the forecast span from 2017 to 2023, rising to a valuation of USD 40.6 billion, according to the latest research report from Market Research Future (MRFR). Factors behind the reported growth include the growing adoption of automation solutions in the industrial sector and a growing reliance on data centers.
