The FiberExpress Bar can adapt to makes fiber management Optical fiber systems offer many benefits: all kinds of properties or developments, easier than ever before. high bandwidth and transmission speed, and can serve as a consolidation or linking Designed to streamline the potential for network growth, extended point. Its available in both single-mode and termination, connection reach, fault tolerance, greater data security multimode media. and maintenance and support for Gigabit and multi-Gigabit activities, the FiberExpress For the ultimate in quick, easy and protocols and networked applications. Manager uses a scalable, reliable optical networking we also offer Beyond these traditional benefits, however, modular approach to the FiberExpress Pre-connectorized Belden offers the FiberExpress Solution, adapt to a wide variety of System. Based on the concept of building a complete end-to-end cabling system situations. The total system blocks, the complete range of pre-terminated supporting both centralized and fiber-to- provides extra high connection density FiberExpress components bring flexibility to the-desk topologies, as well as backbone while facilitating cable routing and patch the design stage. The in-factory fabrication and campus cabling configurations. Our cord management. The FiberExpress and verification of pre-terminated connections FiberExpress Solutions meet or exceed all Manager is adaptable for almost all ensures the high-performance and high- applicable TIA/EIA, ISO/IEC and IEEE situations, traditional field termination or quality of the product. These products are standards and offer: pre-terminated modules, which reduces plug and go and their deployment requires Reduced design complexities design complexity and increases no specialized tools you can deploy deployment efficiency. 12 fibers in the same amount of time it Greater deployment facility takes to connect a power cord to a standard Extended Reach electrical plug. This pre-terminated Quick installation Optical Fiber Cables technology will help to preserve the initial Increased flexibility investment by its ability to be re-deployed Extended Reach Optical Fiber Cables while always ensuring quality results.
