Belden FiberExpress Brilliance Connectors
The FiberExpress Brilliance Connector is the only fiber optic connector in the marketplace to overcome the key challenges
of connector installation in the field, that is, it provides a quick and greatly simplified tool-less fiber termination process
and the ability to quickly and reliably verify the termination once it’s made.

On-site installation assurance is easy with the use of an external laser light source, typically an accessory called a Visual
Fault Locator (VFL).
Key features:

no special tools required, only basic fiber preparation tools
• fiber terminating in 5 seconds
• greatly reduced installation planning and set-up times
no special training required
• virtually no more installation waste
• long life cycle
easy verification for correct termination

The connectors are available individually, or in a bulk recyclable
package where the 25 connectors are separated from the boots
within the package.

The 900 μm tight buffered SC and ST versions, as well as 2 and
3 mm jacketed options and APC versions will be available soon.
To terminate the fiber

1. Insert the fiber into the connector

2. Using your index finger, slide the connector’s switch-like activator tab toward the fiber to be terminated to bring about
   the splice /crimp

3. Slide the boot on the connector body
To check the fiber installation

1. Inject the VFL light into the connector, at which point the light can be seen through the clear window on the connector's
   body.

2. Insert the prepared fiber into the connector, and slide the connector's switch-like activator to terminate the fiber.

3. With the prepared fiber butting against the fiber stub inside the FiberExpress Brilliance connector, a guiding light path is
   created and the light is no longer seen through the window. This absence of light indicates that the connector is pro-
   perly terminated onto the fiber cable.

4. Check. Because the light coming through the unterminated connector is clearly visible through the connector window,
   there’s a very pronounced difference between the unterminated and terminated state.
The FiberExpress Brilliance Connector is a flagship optical fiber product, offering installers and end-users alike the fastest,
simplest, most cost-effective and reliable field-installable connector in the industry.
