BlueOptics 7Z57A03574-BO InfiniBand-glasvezelkabel 3 m MPO 4xLC

The BlueOptics 7Z57A03574-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 3 m multimode OM4 patch cable with an MPO connector on one end and four LC duplex connectors on the other. Designed for high-speed data center and networking environments, this cable supports multi-channel InfiniBand links and high-density trunking applications while featuring a flame-retardant LSZH sheath for reduced smoke and no halogen release in case of fire. The cable is compatible with common optical transceivers and patch panels and is supplied with measured input loss and return loss values.

Advantages

This BlueOptics OM4 MPO to 4xLC cable provides low attenuation and high return loss for reliable signal integrity across short- to medium-range multimode links. The fiber uses laser-optimized multimode OM4 glass for improved bandwidth and modal performance. Connectors are manufactured with zirconia ceramic ferrules and industry-recognized component suppliers, and the assembly is tested using interferometry and OTDR to supply documented loss figures and ensure compliance with Telcordia GR-326-Core requirements.

Suitable for

• High-density data center trunking and switch interconnects
• InfiniBand multi-channel links and HPC cluster connectivity
• Patching between MPO-equipped panels and LC duplex transceivers
• Short- to medium-reach multimode optical links using OM4 fiber

Key specifications

• Connector configuration: MPO to 4 x LC duplex
• Sheath: LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen)
• Testing: Interferometer and OTDR with supplied input loss and return loss measurements
• Ferrule material: Zirconia ceramic
• Compliance: Telcordia GR-326-Core (manufacturing/testing standard)

How to use

Route the 3 m MPO–4xLC cable between MPO backbone ports or a patch panel and LC duplex transceivers or ports, taking care to observe correct polarity and connector orientation. Handle connectors by the housing to avoid contaminating endfaces; inspect and, if necessary, clean endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before connection. Avoid tight bends and secure the cable to prevent mechanical strain; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius for multimode OM4 cables during installation.

Recommendations

Store and install the cable in environments within recommended temperature and humidity ranges and avoid exposure to direct sunlight or aggressive chemicals. Use dust caps when connectors are not mated and perform periodic inspection of endfaces to maintain low insertion loss. For critical links, keep the supplied measurement protocol with the link documentation and retest after installation if required by your operational procedures.
