JUNE 27, 2008 -- Molex Inc. (search for Molex) has introduced new routing configurations to the FlexPlane optical flex circuitry for high-fiber-count interconnects in backplanes and crossconnect systems. Molex's FlexPlane is designed to provide a completely 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.

FlexPlane is available in multiple design options, including standard, flame-retardant, and 3D configurations.
