KeyConnect Square Faceplates

Belden’s new faceplate (86x86) range to complete IBDN® workstations quickly and
efficiently, with the added benefit of installation flexibility, and uniform aesthetics.

Plenty of Choice for Maximum Flexibility

The Belden faceplate range offers a choice of five faceplates, and two styles.
• 
The faceplates are capable of accepting category jacks, fiber adapters and multi-media
• 
modules in keystone style.
These new faceplates can be either wall-mounted on an appropriate wall back box or
• 
underfloor mounted in floor faceplates and are available in Electric White color.

Durability and Reliability

All Belden faceplates are designed to provide maximum durability, protection and
• 
reliable performance.
They feature a sturdy design for impact resistance, made from the best quality ABS.
• 
They include a shutter to protect modules from dust and debris and provide optimum
• 
performance, density and durability, while inserts and adapters are easily released for
further configurations.
L abel windows are situated at the top part of the faceplates, so that the cords do not
• 
block the labels.
This facilitates easy identification, avoiding labels at the bottom where they could not
• 
easily be seen after installation.

FiberExpress® Secure/
Keyed LC System
FX Secure/Keyed LC System

The FX Secure/Keyed LC System allows for physical segregation of network segments

in secure fiber cabling infrastructures. All Secure/Keyed LC products are available with
12 different keying options each carrying a different color to facilitate network adminis-
tration. The keying detail inside the connector is highly tamper-resistant and cannot be
reproduced inside a standard LC connector to violate the network security. All products
comply with the FOCIS 10 standard and optical performance exceeds all industry standards FX Secure/
Keyed LC System
for SFF connectors.

The Secure/Keyed LC Adapter Modules, Frames, Cassettes and Adapter Strips can be
used in all mounting hardware for workstation area, Consolidation Point or Telecom
Room applications. The Secure/Keyed LC FX Manager Modules can be used in 19- and
23-inch FX Manager Shelves to provide a high-density management system.

The Secure/Keyed LC FX Ultra Frames and Cassettes can be used with the FX UHD Rack
and FX Ultra Wall-mount Patch Panels to provide an Ultra high-density patching system
that is easy to deploy, operate and maintain, while ensuring maximum uptime, uninter-
rupted availability and superior performance.

The Secure/Keyed LC Patch Cords and Pigtails are offered in Multimode 62.5 μm (OM1),
laser-optimized 50 μm (OM3 and OM4) and Singlemode (OS2) for the most demanding
network performance.

The Secure/Keyed LC Brilliance Universal Field Installable Connectors are available in FX Brilliance

Reduce Complexity and Increase Flexibility

Today’s advanced networks are diverse and almost always complex. The right way ahead
is to future-proof these networks and to take precautions to protect them against anything
that will create problems, damage or disruption. That means matching the right hardware
with the right cabling to guarantee performance – and that means choosing fiber optic
cable. Optical fiber cables offer many benefits: high bandwidth and transmission speed,
the potential for network growth, extended reach, fault tolerance, greater data security
and support for Gigabit and multi-Gigabit protocols and networked applications.

Involved in the development of optical fiber components for over 40 years, Belden is a
leading supplier of high-quality, cost-effective optical fiber cabling systems. Belden’s fiber
cabling range is the culmination of our experience and expertise in a variety of applications,
including data centers, premise and campus network backbone infrastructures,
fiber-to-the-desk (FTTD) applications, horizontal and centralized cabling systems.
Belden’s fiber cables are designed to offer reduced complexity, increased flexibility, and
rapid installation for maximum cost effectiveness.

This catalog will provide you with comprehensive information about our optical fiber
cabling portfolio – from buffered fiber cables right through to central and multi loose tube
variations for several applications. The upcoming pages contain all the key technical
data and ordering information about the products to help you with configuring the right
fiber backbone for your next mission critical application.

Applications

• Structured (premises) wiring systems: campus and/or building backbone (riser) and/or
horizontal cabling
• Support all computer network applications such as FDDI, Gigabit Ethernet and ATM
• Easy to install in ducts, tunnels and trenches. Not recommended for direct burial

Features & Benefits

• Available in sizes from 2 to 72 fibers

• 900 µm buffered fiber allows for use of field-installable connectors
• Semi-tight buffered optical fibers are easily strippable
• Length marking in meters for easy determination of the cable length
• Full dielectric construction, no grounding required
• These cables are halogen-free (= FRNC and LSNH) and watertight and therefore
suitable for internal and external use. Consequently splicing can be avoided and the
installation gets more cost-effective.
