"The superior performance and cost benefits of our highly acclaimed wireless LAN products have fueled our global growth through the distribution and through our OEM relationships with 3Com, Enterasys, Nortel and other large networking companies. Our customers can now be assured of continued product innovation and new capabilities from the combined resources of Belden and Trapeze.
