 Belden announces its FiberExpress Brilliance Field-Installable
connectors. The new fiber optic connectors are brilliant in design and
implementation, enabling fast, fool-proof and easy termination of a
fiber. Terminations can typically be made in five seconds, with no
termination tools required – a performance unmatched by any other
product in the marketplace today.
The design of the new FiberExpress Brilliance Connector enables
contractors to terminate a tight buffered fiber in just three simple
steps:
- Insert the prepared fiber into the connector
-
Using the index finger, slide the connector’s switch-like activator
toward the fiber to be terminated to bring about the splice/crimp
- Slide the boot on the connector body – and it’s done!
This
fiber installation procedure is accomplished without using any specific
or proprietary installation tools. The built-in activator tab performs
the fiber splicing and crimping action in one simple motion, thus
reducing the number of steps involved by 50% (as compared with most
field-installable connectors).
Currently the Brilliance
connector is available for 900 μm LC (OM1, OM2, OM3 and OS2).
Throughout the year ST-Compatible, SC, APC and jacketed versions will
also be introduced. Brilliance Field-Installable Connectors can be used
for loose tube fiber installations, with the addition of a break-out
kit, so installers can achieve the same reliability and improved fiber
yields as with tight buffered terminations. The Brilliance connector is
also a very reliable connector and is built to withstand a wider range
of temperatures (-400 to +750 C) than traditional fiber connectors.
