Belden can look back on over 100 years' tradition. Today, the company is one of the world's leading providers of signal transmission solutions that are used wherever maximum reliability is required. Belden’s product portfolio comprises cables, connectors and I/O modules, as well as network devices and WLAN systems. The applications range from automation and data centers to aerospace. With manufacturing sites in North America, Europe and Asia, Belden posted sales of 1.62 billion USD in fiscal 2010.
Belden is one of the international technology and market leaders in the field of signal transmission in tough industrial environments. This is because the company not only has a comprehensive product portfolio with its Hirschmann™, Lumberg Automation™ and GarrettCom™ brands, but also offers industry-specific communication solutions from a single source. These solutions are used, among other things, in transport automation, the oil & gas industry, or the energy markets. Successful projects include, for example, networking wind farms, refineries and high-speed trains.
Belden is currently the only provider in the market to offer a complete product range for end-to-end data communication with Industrial Ethernet. This includes both Layer 2 and Layer 3 switches as well as industrial security and WLAN systems that provide a uniform, company-wide communications infrastructure without interface problems and media interruption. Belden also offers high-quality connectivity solutions that cover connectors for sensors and actuators, factory-made connection cables and distribution systems and I/O modules for fieldbus and Ethernet networks. Alongside standard designs, customized solutions are also offered that can be implemented within a short period of time: On average, the development of a new cable with molded connectors can be completed within just six weeks, including the customer’s approval. The Belden product portfolio is rounded off by a broad range of copper and fiber optic cables that guarantee secure data transmission even under extremely harsh conditions.
