“Belden’s reputation of being a world-class manufacturer of signal transmission products has placed us in a favorable position with leading companies from these and other sectors.”
Medendorp also highlighted that the Middle East was one of the fastest growing markets for the broadcast and entertainment industries in the world with a host of new television channels and radio stations being set up across the region, in turn boosting the demand for Belden’s products. 
Regional sales manager Bassem Salhab commented: “Belden is currently seeing an accelerated demand for high-speed cables from the industrial, broadcast and security sectors which have been quick to recognise the advantages of our products and know-how.”
