Aug. 13, 2015

EDITOR'S NOTE: Bedrock Automation ceased operations in 2023. The product is no longer commercially available through standard channels, though it may occasionally appear on secondary markets like eBay. Support, firmware updates, and software availability cannot be verified.

Bedrock OSA delivers I/O, power, and communications across the pin-less electromagnetic backplane with a parallel architecture that supports ultra-fast scan times regardless of I/O count. The removal of I/O pins improves reliability and increases cyber security while forming a galvanic isolation barrier for every I/O channel. This massively innovative backplane also allows the installation of I/O modules in any orientation and location for unprecedented flexibility in I/O and cable management.

  • Real time operating system with the highest safety (SIL 4) and security (EAL6+) rating of any RTOS available today
  • Cyber secure micro-controllers with encrypted keys and TRNG embedded in all system modules including the controller, power supply and I/O
  • All modules encased in anti-tamper metal that is impenetrable without metal cutting tools
  • Authentication extending throughout the supply chain, including third-party software and applications
  • Fewer than a dozen part numbers
  • Reduces overall engineering design costs by up to 33%
