Belden’s EMEA managing director Aurélien Fabre explains how the company has evolved from cabling into a partner for industrial networking, cybersecurity and data infrastructure serving machine builders and OT operators. Secure remote access and edge orchestration, built around the Belden Horizon platform with SRA and Persistent Data Network functions, connect distributed machines without constant site visits and centralize fleet management. https://www.belden.com/solutions/industries/machine-building

HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

In this booth tour from SPS 2025 in Nuremberg, Belden shows how OEMs can connect equipment deployed worldwide through encrypted tunnels while preparing for the EU Cyber Resilience Act by hardening OT networks. Secure access to gateways, role-based policies and continuous monitoring let integrators run remote diagnostics, firmware updates and configuration changes while keeping IT and OT segments isolated and aligned with stricter cybersecurity expectations.
Belden then highlights scalable network infrastructure and unified network management with its “digital data highway” and Belden Horizon console, which discovers industrial assets and supervises complex Ethernet topologies. A new AI-based “digital coworker” proof of concept uses large language models to interpret live telemetry and natural-language intent, so engineers can ask about performance, redundancy or misconfigurations and receive concrete recommendations for safer, more reliable networks.
The video also dives into Belden’s collaborations with Accenture, NVIDIA, Bosch and Reply, where edge AI, computer vision and time-sensitive networking raise worker safety and asset availability on the shop floor. Joint showcases include physical AI safety systems that detect unsafe behavior around robots, digital twins for asset condition monitoring and analytics that turn OT sensor data into guidance for operators during abnormal situations.
Finally, Belden’s experts show how they bridge brownfield architectures from vendors like Siemens and Rockwell, unifying protocols and standards so existing lines can feed data into edge-to-cloud architectures without forklift upgrades. Wireless infrastructure with Wi-Fi 6 and rugged IP67 access points keeps AGVs, mobile robots, warehousing and logistics flows connected, and reference deployments across discrete manufacturing, smart buildings, mass transit and energy demonstrate these networking and AI capabilities at scale.
