New Product Bulletin

Belden’s new patch cords are

comprised of its patented Bonded-

Pair cable and an improved boot

construction to ensure optimum

electrical performance – even in

high-density installations which

experience frequent

handling stresses.

Belden® Bonded-Pair

Modular Cords Are the

Only Cords That Pass the

Stringent TIA Mechanical

Stress Reliability Specifications

and Provide Optimum

Electrical Performance

The 10GX, CAT6+ and CAT5E series of Bonded-

Pair Modular Cords are made with Belden’s

patented robust design Bonded-Pair cables.

These new modular cords offer the best

combination of transmission performance

and physical integrity. Bonded-Pair cable

technology ensures that these cords meet

the stringent TIA mechanical stress reliability

specifications. They are made with solid

conductors for improved attenuation in long

patch cords and pigtails often used in Data

Centers. The combination of Bonded-Pair cable,

improved strain relief and a flexible boot allows

for optimum performance in high-density

installations. The new simplified ordering code

scheme allows for customization of Bonded-

Pair Patch Cord and Pigtail configurations.

Features and Benefits

• Made with Belden’s patented Bonded-Pair

cable for exceptional structural stability

and electrical performance in environments

where frequent moves, adds, and changes

are routine

• Made with small diameter Bonded-Pair

cable for greater flexibility and higher

density installations

• Solid conductors improve attenuation and

are needed in long patch cords and pigtails

to eliminate the need for cable derating in

open-office cabling

• Built with improved strain relief and a

flexible boot for optimum protection in

high-density installations

•Wrap-around label on each cord for easier

product identification and length sorting

• Exceeds TIA and ISO transmission and

mechanical performance requirements

• New ordering code scheme to customize Bonded-

Pair Patch Cord and Pigtail configurations

Applications

• Patch panel or equipment connections in

Data Centers or Telecommunications Rooms

• Consolidation point connections

• Telecommunications outlet or

MUTOA connections

Bonded-Pair Cable

Belden’s breakthrough Bonded-Pair cables are

the result of a patented design that bonds the

individual insulated conductors together along

their longitudinal axis. This unique physical

characteristic results in uniform conductor-to-

conductor spacing – a key aspect in consistent

electrical performance. Even when a Bonded-

Pair Modular Cord is subjected to everyday

handling stresses such as bending, coiling and

pulling, its conductor-to-conductor spacing

remains stable.

The Bonded-Pair Advantage

in Modular Cords

A twisted-pair is comprised of two insulated

conductors. The center-to-center distance of the

copper within the two conductors of the pair, or

its centricity, is a key parameter that influences

the pair’s electrical performance (see Figure 1).

Ideally, this distance should remain fixed and

stable along the length of the twisted pair.

Frequent handling stress applied to modular

cords disturbs this relationship and therefore

also affects the cable’s electrical performance.

The slightest manipulation of a nonbonded-pair

can cause gaps between the two conductors

of the pair.

Even minor disturbances in the spacing can

have a significant impact on the electrical

performance, particularly impedance, return

loss and crosstalk. Since the two conductors

of a Bonded-Pair cable are bonded together,

gaps cannot form in between the conductors.

The physical integrity of the pair is maintained,

resulting in consistent electrical performance.

The stresses of routine modular cord handling

will change the physical structure of a non-

bonded-pair cable. When cords are squeezed

and bent in pathways and cable managers, the

majority of the stress is distributed to the pairs

of the cable. The pairs must withstand this force

despite being manipulated - while, ideally,

maintaining a consistent centricity. Furthermore,

any kink in the cord’s cable also changes the

relationship of the conductors of a pair. For

these reasons, the electrical properties of a

nonbonded-pair cord can degrade over time

(see Figure 2).

In comparison, because of the robust design of

Bonded-Pair cords, concerns about stress and

bend radius are virtually eliminated. Bonded-

Pair Modular Cord cables boast significantly

higher maximum pulling tensions and tighter

bend radii over the recommended guidelines

to accommodate real-world installation issues.

Thus, the electrical performance of Bonded-Pair

Modular Cords experiences few changes over

time and use.

The integrity of cabling systems and entire

networks depends on the integrity of modular

cords; they are the weakest link in the channel.

When the performance of a simple cord in

the network is compromised, overall system

performance is jeopardized. Bonded-Pair

Modular Cords maintain their physical

integrity – and therefore their electrical

performance – even when subjected to handling

stresses in workstation outlets and patch panel

installations. This means less trouble-shooting

and downtime for the end-user.
