Securing Mining Operations: IEC 62443-4-2 Certified Hirschmann Industrial Ethernet Solutions
Securing Mining Operations with Certified Industrial Networking
As mining operations become increasingly connected, reliable and secure industrial networks are critical to maintaining productivity, operational continuity and the protection of mission-critical infrastructure.
IAC – Industrial Automation & Control brings the advanced industrial networking and cybersecurity capabilities of Hirschmann, a Belden brand, to the South African mining and industrial market.
Hirschmann Industrial Ethernet solutions are designed to address the growing cybersecurity requirements of operational technology (OT) environments. Belden’s certified solutions comply with the IEC 62443-4-2 Security Level 2 functional requirements, an internationally recognised standard addressing security in industrial automation and control systems.
Certification provides an important layer of assurance for organisations looking to strengthen their industrial networks. The certified solutions incorporate robust security measures, undergo rigorous security testing, help minimise vulnerabilities and reduce exposure to cyber threats.
The Hirschmann BOBCAT range is among the certified products listed by Belden. BOBCAT managed switches combine advanced security features with ruggedised industrial design and real-time communication capabilities, making them well suited to modern, connected industrial networks.
For mining operations, where OT networks connect critical equipment, automation systems and operational processes, cybersecurity must be considered alongside reliability and network performance. IAC can assist customers in selecting and deploying industrial networking solutions designed to provide secure, dependable communication across demanding environments.
As a Hirschmann Authorised Channel Partner and Authorised Industrial Ethernet Training Partner, IAC combines leading Hirschmann technology with specialist industrial networking expertise.
At Electra Mining Africa 2026, IAC will showcase how secure, reliable industrial networking can help mining operations build stronger, more resilient and future-ready infrastructure.
Secure the network. Protect the operation. Build for the future.
