| Spectrum Control, Inc. |
Spectrum Control is a leader in the design and manufacture of control products and systems used to condition, regulate and govern electronic performance. Over the past several years, we have leveraged our core electromagnetic interference (EMI) filtering expertise to offer our customers a broad line of signal, power, and frequency control products. Our operations are currently conducted in three reportable segments: signal integrity products; power integrity products and management systems; and frequency control products. Our Signal Integrity Products Group designs and manufactures a broad range of low pass EMI filters, surface mount EMI filters, filtered arrays, filtered connectors, gaskets, and specialty ceramic capacitors. Our Power Integrity Products and Management Systems Group designs and manufactures numerous power integrity products (power line filters, power entry modules, multisection filters, power terminal blocks, and custom power filter assemblies) and power management systems (power distribution units, remote power management systems, fuse interface panels, breaker interface panels, and custom power distribution systems). Our recently developed Frequency Control Products Group designs and manufactures ceramic resonators and bandpass filters, ceramic patch antennas, duplexers, lumped element filters, cavity filters, waveguide filters, and related products and systems. Using a solutions-oriented approach, we provide products tailored to meet our customers’ specific needs by anticipating and solving their systems architecture and performance problems. We combine engineering expertise, design and testing capabilities, vertically integrated manufacturing processes and flexible production schedules to provide custom solutions to our customers. Although our components and systems are used in many industries worldwide, our largest markets are telecommunications equipment and military/aerospace which represented 42% and 30% respectively, of our 2002 sales. In telecommunications, our products are used in numerous systems including wireless base stations, optical networks, broadband switching equipment, Internet servers, and global positioning systems. Military/aerospace applications for our products include missile defense systems, smart weapons and munitions, secure communications, simulation equipment, and avionic upgrades. Our other markets include medical instrumentation, industrial equipment, computer, and automotive. |

| Vertical Integration Effectively satisfying electro-magnetic compatibility (EMC) and frequency attenuation standards for commercial and military equipment is best accomplished through a partnership with a vertically integrated solutions provider. Spectrum Control is such a company. Our vertical integration as a producer of ceramic capacitors, filters, and dielectric ceramics enables us to reduce lead times for both prototyping and production orders . . . ensuring on-time delivery. |
||||||
| Rapid Response Recognizing the importance of on-time delivery, Spectrum Control has instituted a flow "Rapid Response" production system to achieve consistent, on-time delivery performance. This system has enabled Spectrum to establish the industry's shortest product cycle times. Whether it be flow manufacturing or just-in-time . . . we deliver to meet our customer's needs. |
