Belden unveiled its FiberExpress Brilliance field-installable, fiber optic connectors, boasting that terminations can typically be made in five seconds without termination tools. The process, says Belden, is simple: insert prepared fiber into the connector; slide connector’s switch-like activator toward the fiber to be terminated to bring about the splice/crimp; slide the boot on the connector body. The connector is currently available for 900µm LC (OM1, OM2, OM3 and OS2). Throughout the year, ST-compatible, SC, APC and jacketed versions will be introduced.
