February 28, 2008

Belden is an innovative company and continually introduces new products to the market. Particularly important this year are cable developments for HD and Installable Performance. For example, Belden's high quality Installable Performance is largely due to the use of high density nitrogen gas-injected foam dielectric and the use of small, closed cell bubbles.

New developments and products on show include:

Tactical Fiber cable. This has been significantly upgraded and improved by Belden for broadcast quality. It is primarily used for long haul high definition (HD) transmissions from mobile trucks. The new ITU G.657 standard fiber has full compatibility with G.652.D fibers with low bending loss to enable smaller fiber management (< 0,5dB/km at 1625nm and < 0,2dB/km at 1550nm). It has a core-bonded(TM) outer jacket and is also available in 2-12 fibers (GMTT8xx) CatSnake(TM) Four-channel, Heavy-duty Cat5e Snake.

This is an ideal solution for applications that require multiple or redundant channels of Cat5e cables in remote production or staging applications.

Heat-resistant Hybrid Fiber Cable for HDTV Camera. This is available as mobile cable for use in the studio or in the field and also as static cable for use in permanent installations. All three versions have flexible black jackets in either halogen-free, PUR or PVC and all feature heat-resistant PE insulation. The range is available with a special put-up for easy connectorization on the drum.

Wireless Access System. The unique design of this cable greatly simplifies installation and offers improved performance over current technology. It is available in BWAP-200, BWS-8008 and BWS-8024 types.

Expanded line of FRNC speaker cables. All these unshielded speaker cables are halogen-free but still flexible. The Brilliance® line consists of 1.5mm², 2.5mm² and 4.0mm² constructions.

Single pair products available are 46382NH: 1.5 mm² (16 AWG), 30 strand, 2 conductor; 46381NH: 2.5 mm² (13 AWG), 50 strand, 2 conductor; 46380NH: 4.0 mm² (11 AWG), 56 strand, 2 conductor. Speaker snake products are 46379NH: 2.5 mm² (13 AWG), 50 strand, 4 conductor; 43907NH: 2.5 mm² (13 AWG), 300 strand, 8 conductor.

Expanded line of FRNC OFHC premium construction speaker cables. These cables are halogen-free but still flexible and have low capacitance. They are made with oxygen-free copper for exceptional clarity of sound. Print legends, such as Room 123 or Zone ABC, facilitate location identification. Single pair products available are 70003E2: 2.5 mm² (13 AWG), 651 strand, 2 conductor and 70004E2: 4.0 mm² (11 AWG), 651 strand, 2 conductor. Speaker snake products are 70003E4: 2.5 mm² (13 AWG), 651 strand, 4 conductor and 70003E8: 2.5 mm² (13 AWG), 1040 strand, 8 conductor

CATV Multicore Cable for Multi Switch Systems. Belden has extended their highly popular CATV range with an easy-to-install bundle of H121A. This has the very common European video coaxial dimension of 0.8/3.5. The new cable provides optimum signal transmission performance for MATV/SMATV in 3x0.8/3.5, 5x0.8/3.5 and 9x0.8/3.5 versions.

NanoSkew(TM) Brilliance® VideoTwist(TM) in S/FTP design. Belden's new shielded design of the well-known NanoSkew(TM) is now available for Digital Signage applications

CA00270 Brilliance Assemblies(TM) SMPTE 311M HDTV. With the increase in high definition video applications, such as 1080i/p and 720p, bandwidth demands on camera cables has grown significantly. To meet this, Belden now offers the new generation, heat resistant 7804E range. This consists of dual single-mode fiber optic cables and copper components for power and data. It uses a special connector made by Lemo 3K.93C or ADC ProAx(TM) or Neutrik"s Opticalcon®

Belden is a well-established leader in halogen-free cable developments. Of particular interest are:-

Halogen-free VideoFlex® Snake Cable. This highly popular cable has been extended with an easy-to-install bundle of 1855ENH. It has the very common European video coaxial dimension of 0.6/2.8 and is now available in 3x0.6/2.8 (1855EN3), 5x0.6/2.8 (1855EN5) and 6x0.6/2.8 (1855EN6).

Halogen-free Mini High Resolution S-Video Cable (1855AN2). This is the ideal cable for residential installations, such as home theatre and musical applications using BNC connectors.

Halogen-free 179DT. Belden now offers a halogen-free version of the popular Brillance DigitTruck 179DT lightweight RG-179 type 75-ohm coaxial cable. This is designed to help lighten truck load which in turn reduces fuel consumption. It takes up less space and improves air-conditioning flow.

Other cable developments include 1347A - a 2V4A ENG cable, carrying 2x 1505A plus 4x 9451 for Digital Camera applications, and 1694S5 - a 1694A 5 pack banana peel HD video snake swept to 4.5 GHz.
