Belden touring Mobile Collaboration Center trailer for hands-on data center customer outreach

Sept. 8, 2021
Belden is bringing its data center solutions straight to customers with its new Mobile Collaboration Center. The 43-foot trailer will be traveling the US to visit data center designers, installers, operators and owners.

Belden Inc. (NYSE: BDC) will officially launch its Mobile Collaboration Center (MCC) roadshow with an inaugural event on September 15 in Ashburn, Virginia, with following stops throughout the U.S. in 2021 and 2022.

The MCC is a hands-on experience where Belden brings a wide range of product and system solutions directly to data center designers, installers, operators and owners.

In-house experts will be on hand as part of the tour to discuss how Belden can support the efforts of mission-critical data centers through a collaborative design process and enhanced delivery of its fiber systems.

In describing the MCC experience, Belden reckons:

From the rack space to the parking space, attendees will discover solutions designed for every corner of the data center. By combining rapid deployment with scalability, flexibility and space savings, Belden data center solutions focus on supporting uninterrupted network, power, cooling and security services.


Inside the MCC are examples of several standard and configurable solutions, including Belden’s fiber cables, field-terminated copper and fiber solutions, pre-terminated copper and fiber cabling, cabinets, wall-mount patch panels, cable management and new innovations like the OptiTuff Mini Fiber Cable.

“Belden’s data center solutions are designed to be used anywhere within the white space or gray space, including facilities management and core IT, Ethernet over IP (EoIP) and OT requirements for building controls, command and control, security and surveillance,” says Chrissy Olsen, global director of data centers at Belden. “We’re looking forward to getting the Mobile Collaboration Center out on the road so we can meet with customers, showcase our innovative solutions, and start having collaborative data center design conversations.”

According to the company, the Mobile Collaboration Center also features an interactive screen with information about up-and-coming Belden product launches; a live-stream connection with the company's F1 Center of Excellence (where Belden creates custom fiber-optic assemblies); and a hands-on station where customers can try out the company's fiber FX Fusion splicing and copper REVConnect termination processes.
