Cresta Run: 140 km/h in a channel of natural ice

Cresta is a type of sled race down an ice channel, similar to the skeleton. The world’s only natural ice channel for this sport, the Cresta Run, is located in St. Moritz, Switzerland. To ensure that the riders remain safe, the course was fitted with a number of surveillance cameras in autumn 2012 – and connected using fiber optic cables from HUBER+SUHNER.

A new level: South America on Level3

The days when Internet and data traffic in South American countries slowly wound its way through complicated cable, transit and satellite connections are a thing of the past. A lot of countries throughout South America are now networked and online with service provider Level3, enabling them to enjoy one of the world’s most advanced fiber optics platforms for the Internet with products from HUBER+SUHNER.

ALMA: A look into the universe’s soul

ALMA, or “soul” in Spanish, is the name of the world’s largest telescope, located over 5,000 metres above sea level in the Atacama desert, Chile. The facility’s 66 mobile parabozlic antennas provide ALMA with a variable diameter that ranges from 150 metres to 16 kilometres. This serves as a gigantic zoom lens and allows the telescope to peer deep into the universe’s soul. ALMA will be officially inaugurated on 13 March 2013. At its heart lie fiber optic connections from HUBER+SUHNER.

Connections on the wind

Ensuring an adequate energy supply is one of the greatest technological challenges of the new century. By 2050, twice as much primary energy will be required worldwide compared to today. The finite nature of fossil fuels and the desire to reduce greenhouse gases are driving the further development of regenerative sources of energy. This not only requires new installations, but also cost savings through energy efficiency: an objective that can only be achieved through superior technical solutions. HUBER+SUHNER offers three technologies for wind energy that can help achieve these goals.

Wave 2012: From sun to street

As in 2011, HUBER+SUHNER once again supported the SunCar project at ETH Zurich in 2012. True to the project motto “From sun to street”, the students at ETH Zurich have developed an electrically driven road car that runs on environmentally friendly energy. In 2012, the car participated in WAVE, the world’s largest rally for electric vehicles.

Certified to market requirements

The HUBER+SUHNER quality policy acts as a guiding principle and is designed to align all company activities with current and future market requirements.

SeaJack: As colourful as Lego, as solid as a rock

A massive building site on the rough, open sea. Whether oil and gas platform or wind farm, the colourful SeaJack provides a stable construction base. This vessel, which almost looks like a over-dimensioned Lego creation, stands as solid as a rock, despite the often inhospitable conditions. Inside, it is fitted with highly resistant RADOXR cables from HUBER+SUHNER.
