What Belden Inc. does.

Belden Inc. (the Company, us, we, or our) is a leading global supplier of complete connection solutions that unlock untold possibilities for our customers, their customers and the world. We advance ideas and technologies that enable a safer, smarter and more prosperous future. Throughout our 120-plus year history we have evolved as a company, but making connections remains our purpose. Our business is organized around two global businesses, Smart Infrastructure Solutions and Automation Solutions, both of which benefit from favorable secular trends which we expect to drive future growth. Each business represents a reportable segment. Financial information about our segments appears in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. We sell our products to distributors, end-users, installers, and directly to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Belden Inc. is a Delaware corporation incorporated in 1988, but the Company’s roots date back to its founding by Joseph Belden in 1902.

As used herein, unless an operating segment is identified or the context otherwise requires, “Belden,” the “Company”, and “we” refer to Belden Inc. and its subsidiaries as a whole.

Our purpose is to make connections. Within Smart Infrastructure Solutions, our Smart Buildings products offer in-building wired and wireless infrastructures, fiber technology innovation, and design collaboration and customization to connect people with facilities through innovative solutions for enhanced human engagement, productivity, and security. Also within Smart Infrastructure Solutions, our Broadband Solutions products offer a broad portfolio of end-to-end solutions, industry-leading innovation and technology, and worldwide technical service and support to enable a connected, digital world through broadband and wireless innovation. Within Automation Solutions, we are uniquely positioned to support digital transformation by providing end-to-end digitization infrastructure focused on robust network infrastructure, secure remote access, accelerated convergence of information technology systems with operational technology (IT/OT), and edge and data analytics.
