- Belden, a St. Louis-based manufacturer of data
networking products, has agreed to purchase Hacienda’s Trapeze Networks
for $133 million in cash. Trapeze specializes in wireless LAN
applications, including campus-wide deployments for customers in
education, health care, manufacturing, and government, a product line
which complements Belden’s wired network offerings.
“During the past six years,
enterprise customers around the world have invested in Trapeze Networks
Smart Mobile because they can depend on it for constant connectivity
and reliable mobility,” says Jim Vogt, Trapeze president and CEO. “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.”
- BAE Ground Systems has awarded CPU Tech a $47 million
delivery order for Acalis system-on-a-chip components for use in
Bradley Combat Systems vehicles. The Acalis CPU420 contains multiple
processors, memories, controllers, interfaces, and other items.
“The integration and low
power of the Acalis CPU420 enabled us to significantly reduce the
number of boards while adding enhanced functionality,” says Ed King,
CPU Tech’s CEO. “Its capabilities were key to developing a modern
system for a vital military platform.”
- Harsch Investment Properties’ facility at 3825
Hopyard Road has received an Energy Star Certificate. According to
property manager Monica Graham, “This is an award of excellence
establishing our rank in the top 25 percent of our building class in
regards to energy management.”
