February 24, 2005

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

                 BELDEN CDT ANNOUNCES HIGHER FOURTH QUARTER 2004
                               SALES AND EARNINGS

St. Louis, Missouri - Belden CDT Inc. (NYSE:BDC) today announced results for the
fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2004. For continuing operations, the
Company's revenue for the quarter was $330.3 million, net income was $8.6
million and earnings per fully diluted share were $0.17. Excluding
merger-related items, severance charges, and a tax valuation allowance, net
income was $20.4 million or $0.39 per fully diluted share.

On July 15, 2004, the Company, formerly called Cable Design Technologies
Corporation (CDT), merged with Belden Inc. ("Belden") and changed its name to
Belden CDT Inc. For accounting purposes, the Company treated the merger as an
acquisition by Belden. Results of the legacy CDT operations are included in 2004
results from July 16 onwards. Prior-year results in this release (other than pro
forma results) reflect the results of Belden only.

Highlights of the quarter ended December 31, 2004:

      o   Revenue from continuing operations increased 21.2 percent compared
          with pro forma combined revenues of $272.6 million in the fourth
          quarter a year ago.

      o   Net income from continuing operations, adjusted to exclude the
          merger-related items, severance charges, and the tax valuation
          allowance, was $20.4 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared
          with pro forma combined net income from continuing operations in the
          fourth quarter of 2003 of $7.6 million, or $0.16 per fully diluted
          share. This adjusted result for 2004 reflects an adjusted operating
          margin for the quarter of 9.4 percent of sales and adjusted EBITDA of
          $41.1 million.

      o   The Company changed the method of accounting for the inventory of its
          former Belden operations in the United States from LIFO to FIFO. This
          action, affecting approximately 17 percent of the Company's worldwide
          inventory, conformed the Company's inventory accounting policies
          across all operations. The change increased total inventory on the
          balance sheet by $21.1 million. Prior-period results have been
          restated as if the FIFO method were used in all periods.

      o   Free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures of
          $10.6 million and dividends of $2.4 million) was $31.7 million.

Merger-related items during the fourth quarter of 2004 were $2.6 million before
taxes, or $0.03 per share,

<PAGE>

including the gross-margin impact of adjusting CDT inventory to fair market
value, amortization of short-lived intangibles, and merger-related expenses for
relocation and compensation. Severance charges in the fourth quarter of 2004
were $1.3 million pre-tax, or $0.02 per fully diluted share. The Company
recognized $3.0 million pre-tax ($0.03 per share after tax) of other operating
income under a sales incentive agreement with a private-label customer.

The Company established a $9.4 million tax valuation allowance in the fourth
quarter of 2004 to recognize the likelihood that a portion of the loss
carry-forwards in the Netherlands will not be realized.

     (3)  As if Belden and CDT had been combined at the beginning of 2004.
          Operating profit adjusted to exclude merger-related costs and
          severance charges (including costs incurred by CDT prior to the
          merger). Net income adjustment also excludes the fourth-quarter tax
          valuation allowance, the third quarter tax benefit from a prior-period
          matter, and the gain on sale of a business.

     (4)  As if Belden and CDT had been combined at the beginning of 2003, and
          adjusted for severance charges and asset impairment charges.

For the fourth quarter of 2003, reported revenue from continuing operations of
Belden was $161.7 million, and net income from continuing operations was $5.5
million or $0.22 per share.

Included in that result were income of $3.0 million pretax ($0.07 per share
after tax) under the sales incentive agreement and charges of $1.6 million
pre-tax ($0.04 per share after tax) for employee severance.

CEO COMMENT

"Revenue came in better than expected, partly due to currency exchange rates and
partly due to better-than expected volume, especially in December in various
parts of our Networking segment," said C. Baker Cunningham, chief executive
officer and president of Belden CDT Inc. "We were also pleased at the further
improvement in our operating margin which reflects both our cost reduction work
and improving capacity utilization," he continued. "In addition to these
improvements in revenue and earnings, we are also pleased with the January
launch of the Belden IBDN 10GX networking solution--clearly the most advanced
copper-based 10-gigabit cabling solution in the marketplace."

FULL YEAR 2004 RESULTS

For the year ended December 31, 2004, Belden CDT revenue from continuing
operations was $966.2 million. Net income from continuing operations of Belden
CDT for 2004 was $15.4 million, or $0.43 per diluted share using 38.7 million
average shares for the full year including the dilutive effect of the
convertible debentures from July 16, 2004 onward. The results for 2004 included
a gain of $1.7 million before tax for the sale of a Belden European business,
$30.6 million pre-tax of merger-related costs and severance charges, a $9.4
million tax valuation allowance in the Netherlands and a $2.4 million benefit in
the third quarter from the favorable resolution of a prior period tax matter.

On a pro forma combined basis (as if Belden and CDT were combined at the
beginning of 2004 and 2003 respectively), revenue for 2004 was $1,241.2 million,
an increase of 15.9 percent from 2003 pro forma revenue of $1,071.2 million. On
a pro forma combined basis and adjusting for the effect of merger-related costs,
the gain on sale of a business, and the tax events noted above, net income from
continuing operations for 2004 was $45.1 million or $0.90 per diluted share
using 53.3 million average shares which includes the dilutive effect of the
convertible debentures for the full year. The comparable adjusted pro forma net
income for 2003 was $23.4 million or $0.50 per diluted share, using 49.4 million
shares including the effect of convertible debentures from their inception on
July 8, 2003.

For Belden, revenue from continuing operations in 2003 was $624.1 million, and
net income from continuing operations in 2003 was $10.2 million, or $0.40 per
diluted share using 25.4 million Belden shares. The results for 2003 included
severance charges of $6.5 million, asset impairment charges of $0.4 million, and
bad-debt expense of $0.6 million (all before taxes).

ELECTRONICS SEGMENT

Segment results are presented only as reported. Pro forma information is not
available by segment.


                                       3
<PAGE>

Revenue of the Electronics segment for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 was
$196.0 million and operating profit of the segment was $25.1 million. Included
in this result were charges and merger-related items of $3.1 million. Without
these charges, operating income of the segment for the quarter was 14.4 percent
of sales. Revenue and operating income of this segment in the fourth quarter of
2003 were $110.7 million and $10.6 million, respectively, but the year-ago
result reflects only the legacy Belden operations that are in this segment.
Segments were redefined after the July 2004 merger, and prior-year results are
now stated on the basis of new segmentation.

Full-year 2004 revenue for the Electronics segment was $604.4 million (including
results of legacy CDT operations from July 16 onward), and operating profit
(including the second quarter gain on sale of a business and $25.6 million in
charges and merger-related items) was $47.3 million for the year. Sales in 2003
were $428.1 million for the legacy Belden operations in this segment, and
operating income was $29.7 million.

NETWORKING SEGMENT

Revenue of the Networking segment of Belden CDT for the quarter ended December
31, 2004 was $134.3 million. Operating profit for the segment was $8.1 million
in the fourth quarter of 2004, including income of $3.0 million from the sales
incentive contract, and charges and merger-related items of $0.6 million.
Excluding the charges, operating profit of the Networking segment was 6.5
percent of sales for the quarter. Revenues and operating profit in the fourth
quarter of 2003 were respectively $51.0 million and $4.4 million for this
segment (Belden operations only). The year-ago operating profit also included
$3.0 million pre-tax income from the sales incentive contract.

Full-year 2004 revenue for the Networking segment was $361.8 million (including
results of legacy CDT operations from July 16 onward). Operating profit for the
Networking segment for 2004 (including income under the sales incentive contract
of $3.0 million and $1.0 million of charges and merger-related items) was $19.9
million. In 2003, segment revenue was $196.0 million for the legacy Belden
operations now in this segment, and operating income was $10.2 million including
the sales incentive income.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In discontinued operations, the company experienced a fourth-quarter tax benefit
of $11.2 million because of the completion of restructuring steps necessary to
deduct its tax basis in the stock of its discontinued telecommunications cable
operations in North America. This tax deduction more than offset losses from
discontinued operations in the quarter. Income from discontinued operations was
$9.7 million in the fourth quarter and a loss of $0.4 million for the year 2004,
not including gains or losses on disposals.

OUTLOOK

"Our outlook for revenue for the year 2005, assuming steady exchange rates, is
that revenue will increase 5 to 10 percent compared with the pro forma combined
revenue of $1,241.2 million for


                                       4
<PAGE>

Belden CDT for 2004," said Mr. Cunningham. "Most of our businesses have enacted
first-quarter price increases. We expect revenue to increase because of better
price realization and slightly stronger full-year volume," he said.

"We originally expected annual net savings from the merger to be about $25
million. We now expect that the net number will be about $35 million," Mr.
Cunningham said. "We find that the savings from the plant closings are expected
to be greater than originally planned, and we have increased our estimate of
merger-related savings in the area of selling, general and administrative
expense. These savings will help us continue to improve our operating margins,
which we expect to fall in the range of 8.5 to 9.5 percent (excluding
merger-related costs) for 2005. We expect our effective income tax rate to be 35
percent for 2005."

"What we have seen so far in the first quarter has confirmed our confidence in
our ability to continue improving our operating performance. We expect that
revenue in the first quarter, which is generally the lowest quarter of the year
for us, will be in the range of $305 to $310 million. We expect that our
operating margin for the first quarter will be in the mid-single digits," Mr.
Cunningham concluded.

achieved for the Company's products, the actions of customers and competitors,
the cost of raw materials (including copper and plastics) and transportation,
and other factors. For a more complete discussion of risk factors, please see

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures, that is, they are not numbers
prepared under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP. The Company
provides information about EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because we believe they
supply meaningful additional information about our performance and our ability
to service our long-term debt and other fixed obligations and to fund our
continued growth. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in
addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance
with GAAP.
