SANTA ANA, Calif., September 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — flint technologyworld leader in wired and wireless networking solutions, announced the introduction and availability of its new enterprise Wi-Fi bridge, BR-330AC-LP, the September 7, 2022. The BR-330AC-LP is a wireless LAN bridge (station device) that supports the IEEE 802.11ac wireless communication standard and enterprise security. Accelerate IT/OT convergence by connecting wirelessly between legacy wired IP devices and a secure enterprise IT network that requires 802.1X authentication. The BR-330AC-LP eliminates the need for copper wiring in building energy management systems and reduces the power consumption required for wireless connectivity in those applications. Silex’s broadest portfolio of Ethernet to Wi-Fi bridge products enables customers to select the optimal solution for each use case
BR-330AC-LP Power Consumption Compared to Legacy Wi-Fi Bridge

Why is 802.1X authentication important:
The convergence of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) has emerged in the deployment of Industrial IoT. Traditionally, OT was separate from IT and had different sets of security and implementation requirements. In the IT segment, many companies rely on 802.1X for device authentication, while OT devices have not been equipped with 802.1X authentication capability. 802.1X becomes the emerging theme for OT devices to connect with IT using 802.1X authentication. The Silex Enterprise Wi-Fi Bridge enables users to securely connect non-802.1X-compliant devices to IT-enabled 802.1X networks and Wi-Fi infrastructure.
How much energy does BR-330AC-LP save?
The BR-330AC-LP reduces power consumption by about 45% when transmitting Wi-Fi data compared to other silex’s 802.11ac Wi-Fi bridge. Power consumption in idle state is also halved. The BR-330AC-LP’s low power operation results in longer operation for mobile and battery powered applications.
