Belden Receives Two Major Accolades at the 2015 Asian Manufacturing Awards

Venlo, The Netherlands - October 12, 2015 - Belden Inc., a global leader in signal-transmission solutions for mission-critical applications, has been given two prestigious awards at the Asian Manufacturing Awards 2015—one for its Hirschmann Eagle portfolio of industrial firewalls and one for its Hirschmann RSPE switch.

Hirschmann Eagle industrial firewalls

Hirschmann Eagle industrial firewalls are used to build user-friendly industrial-process-control Ethernet networks that meet the toughest security standards. The firewalls protect automation processes and help ensure operational safety around the clock.

They also feature a ‘firewall learning mode’ which enables customers to monitor live traffic on a network. This in turn makes it possible to fine-tune firewall rules in a live environment. The firewalls meet the critical hardware requirements of industrial applications, such as the ability to operate in high temperatures, and compatibility with DIN rail mounting. They also feature flexible dual-redundant power-supply inputs.

These managed industrial Ethernet switches offer maximum flexibility, a future-proof network design and best-possible investment protection. Users benefit from a lower total cost of ownership throughout the entire network infrastructure lifecycle.

These annual Awards honor product manufacturers and service providers who over the previous 12 months have introduced top-class solutions to the industry’s most pressing manufacturing and engineering challenges. An international panel selects the winners in a process that is externally audited to ensure transparency.

This year’s Awards Ceremony was organized by Contineo Media.

“We are delighted with the recognition that these awards give us”, said Ashish Chand, managing director of Industrial Solutions for Belden in APAC “At the same time, we always look beyond a purely product perspective, providing pre-sales design support, technical training, solution verification, and technical support. We want our customers to be completely satisfied with our state-of-the-art solutions, and with the total lifecycle support we offer for their requirements and applications.”
