Meeting HDTV requirements for the future:
Belden HDTV cables exceed the standard
Belden’s range of Brilliance™ broadcast video coax cables, designed for maximum bandwidth, minimum return loss and minimum attenuation loss already meet the very tight specifications for electrical properties. Now to make them ideally suited for 1080P HDTV/SDI applications, their performance specifications are extended from 3GHz to 4.5 GHz. In addition, every reel is sweep tested for return loss and certified to the new, higher frequency.
For the installation of offshore wind farms in the Irish Sea, Mammoet Van Oord, an international marine contractor, selected heavy lifting slings made with super-strong Dyneema® polyethylene fiber from DSM Dyneema. The special round slings, manufactured by the Unitex Group, are designed to lift heavy loads weighing up to several hundreds of tons.

BERGEN OP ZOOM, THE NETHERLANDS — November 14, 2006 — GE Plastics recently announced that various grades of its flame-retardant Flexible Noryl* resin for wire coating and insulation have been listed by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) under the UL1581 reference standard for electrical wires, cables, and flexible cords, for up to 105 °C end-use temperature rating. As a result, proposed wire and cable products incorporating high-performance Flexible Noryl resins only need to undergo short-term aging testing vs. a 150-day long-term aging test, speeding time to market. The new GE materials have already proven themselves in the automotive and consumer electronics industries, and, with this new UL listing, are poised for rapid growth in appliance wiring applications.
