Belden offers an innovative range of products for wind energy management comprising the Belden, Hirschmann and Lumberg Automation brands, for effective cabling, networking and connectivity. At the Hanover Fair, it will highlight fully integrated solutions for the fast, easy and safe installation and operation of wind farms in challenging environments.
New products to be featured include the Hirschmann BAT-C, an industry-grade IP65 WLAN client designed for cost-effective deployment in WLAN installations where there is no need for high-end clients.
