Molex FlexPlane Optical Circuitry Provides -Density Optical Routing

Molex has introduced its routing configurations to the FlexPlne optical flex circuitry for high fiber-count interconnects in backplanes and cross-connect systems. The FlexPlane provides a customizable means of routing fiber from card-to-card or shelf-to-shelf. A variety of interconnects, including Blind Mate MTP (BMTP), High Density Blind Mate MT (HBMT), Blind Mate LC (BLC) and Blind Mate SC (BSC) can be used to connect the optical flex circuits to individual cards in a shelf. Available in any routing scheme, fiber can be routed point-to-point, in a shuffle, or in a logical pattern to meet specific requirements. The FlexPlane is available in multiple design options, including standard, flame-retardant and 3D configurations.
