Marine-certified cables provide reliable, safe, and cost-effective solutions for harsh offshore environments



St. Louis, Missouri – Belden Inc., a global leader in signal transmission solutions for mission critical applications, announces the availability of its new MarineTuff line of HaloarrestXLink LSZH-Jacketed 600V instrumentation, control and VFD cables. These cables offer reliable, safety-conscious cabling solutions for offshore platforms, equipment suppliers and commercial shipbuilders.

The MarineTuff cables are designed for use in both interior and exterior environments. This makes purchasing easier by eliminating the need to specify multiple cable types. It also leads to earlier production and deployment by accelerating the design, fabrication and installation process.
