Unprotected interfaces on machines, like USB ports and Ethernet interfaces, may become an open gate for malware or data manipulation. In order to avoid this, 2BSecure was developed. With this system, the interfaces will be deactivated by default, limiting the acces to authorised personnel. A manual activation via key switch or RFID ensures that only authorised persons can activate the interface and thus enabling data transmission. The limitation to authorised personnel furthermore not only protects the machine control, but also sensible data within the whole network.

2BSecure was developed as a compact black box solution that is being installed between the interface and the end device. The black box is usually well protected within the machine, so there are no particular technical requirements for degree of protection and temperature. The connection is provided via a connection block with a rated voltage of 24 V, as is typical for the usual end systems. The interfaces fulfil the normal requirements for USB-A, USB-C and Ethernet. The dimensions of the black box are very compact with 50 x 60 x 17 mm.

2BSecure can be implemented without great effort in exsting machine and IT infrastructures. The control of the black box is conducted through the end device which guarantees a seamless and user-friendly implementation. 2BSecure can also be adjusted to different requirements and applications areas, be it the manufacturing industry, energy sector or critical infrastructure.

High legal protection requirements
With the control of open interfaces, 2BSecure contributes to comply with the strict requirements of the new EU machine directive 2027 as well as the NIS ("Network and Information Security") 2.0 directive of the EU. Those obligate companies that work in manufacturing, the energy or transportation sector to prove that their machines and networks are protected against unauthorised access.

Flexible, functional, and attractive—these are the characteristics that define the proboxx enclosure series from Georg Schlegel GmbH & Co. KG. With this product line, the control device specialist is adding an elegant yet practical solution to its portfolio.

The proboxx impresses with its wide range of possible applications. Its design allows for easy integration into existing structures. It can be used with conventional wiring (M12, M16 cable glands) as well as with modern bus, communication, or radio systems. Variants with IO-Link, AS-Interface, and sWave radio interface are currently available.

The enclosure, made of polyamide plastic, is characterized by its high strength. With the newly developed fastening mechanism, it can be mounted on a full-surface substructure, on the wall, or on profile rails. The housing does not need to be opened for this, and it can also be replaced quickly and without tools for maintenance. The fastening mechanism allows for asymmetrical placement as well as use on tumblers.

Special attention was paid to the design of the proboxx. Emphasis was placed on aesthetics and security: the screw connection was deliberately placed on the underside so that the appearance is not marred by exposed screws. This also prevents unauthorized opening without disassembly. The two-tone look underscores the high-quality impression and can be customized.

The proboxx is designed for up to four control stations and is available as an empty enclosure or pre-assembled. Customers can use the online configurator to put together the right enclosure themselves or choose from standard variants.

Creating connection

Panel mount jacks enable us to cross technical barriers easily to get access to machines. Several devices and systems can be connected to machines via this interface technology. GEORG SCHLEGEL GmbH & Co. KG offers panel mount jacks for a wide variety of applications. Based on our broad variety of connection types, mounting apertures and variants with small mounting depths, we are able to meet a wide range of diverse requirements.

Series

RONTRON-R-JUWEL, RONTRON-Q-JUWEL, OKTRON-JUWEL, QUARTRON-JUWEL

Mounting apertures

22.3mm cross section (series RONTRON-R-JUWEL and RONTRON-Q-JUWEL), 23 x 23mm (OKTRON-JUWEL), 24x48mm (QUARTRON-JUWEL), adapter plate for 30.5mm is available as well

Connection types

We offer the following connection types (front and rear side, depending on the series):

- USB (Typ A, B und C)

- FireWire

- RJ 45

- Lichtwellenleiter

- M12

- PS2

- HDMI

- Klinkenstecker

- SVHS

- VGA

- RS232

The panel mount jacks are available with silver-coloured, stainless steel (polished) and black front bezel. In addition, you can choose from a variety of suitable accessories like protective covers, illumination rings or connecting cables.

Georg Schlegel GmbH & Co. KG is expanding its SHORTRON family with a variant featuring an M12 connection attached directly to the actuator. SHORTRON Connect thus meets the growing demand for compact, industrial-grade M12 solutions.

Quick and easy

In addition to costs, time and safety are also important factors in project planning. SHORTRON Connect enables simple, quick, and error-free installation, as the M12 locking technology prevents reverse polarity – in line with the Plug&Work principle: plug it in and get started. No additional contact element is required, as it is already integrated into the switch.

All-round protection

There is no need for a separate housing, as the IP65/IP67 protection classes offer protection against water and dust from both the front and rear. This saves costs and space – especially with the ergonomic mounting brackets for 40 mm profile rails. With 90° brackets for vertical mounting and 135° brackets for horizontal mounting, actuators can be positioned flexibly or existing operating stations can be expanded. For this purpose, the mounting brackets are available in three different versions, each with 1, 2, or 3 mounting holes.

Small with style

With an installation depth of just 33.7 mm (emergency stop 26.7 mm), SHORTRON Connect remains extremely compact and is ideal for machines, panels, and control units with limited space. The familiar flat design has been retained. Front frames are available in silver, black, or stainless steel.

Powerful and versatile

The range includes an indicator light, pushbuttons, illuminated ring pushbuttons, selector and key switches, and an emergency stop.

For illuminated devices, different colored button caps or identification plates are available, which can also be changed when installed.
The switches with 4-pin M12 connection are available as normally open, normally closed/normally open, or double normally open.

The emergency stop is available as a double normally open (4- or 5-pin with AIDA assignment) or as a double normally open with normally open (5-pin). All M12 connections are A-coded.
The selector and key switches are available with 2 or 3 switching positions, latching or momentary.
The electrical characteristics: Ue up to 35 V, le 2–4 A depending on the version.
