SKU: Beijer-BCI2NG-CANBUS Beijer CANBUS BCI-2 New Gen Speed and Power Interface

Beijer Automotive BCI-2NG Speed Signal Pulse Output and Vehicle Power On Output

Modern cars are increasingly equipped with CAN FD networks. CAN FD (Controller Area Network with Flexible Data-Rate) is a new automotive network that surpasses the classic CAN protocol. It offers faster and more efficient data processing and is essential for the complex electronic systems in many modern vehicles.

Beijer saw this development coming well ahead of time, and after years of research, development and testing, introduced the BCI Next Gen (BCI-NG). In addition to the classic CAN protocols, this new generation of CAN interfaces also supports CAN FD and is ready for the many challenges in the field of sustainability, security and reliability that the global automotive sector faces.
