BlueOptics CAB-SMF-LC-SC-1 InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 1 m LC/UPC SC/UPC

The BlueOptics CAB-SMF-LC-SC-1 InfiniBand fibre optic cable 1 m LC/UPC SC/UPC is a single-mode patch cable engineered for high-speed data links in networking and server environments. With one metre of length and male LC/UPC to SC/UPC terminations, the cable provides low-loss optical transmission for InfiniBand connections, splicing racks, switches and optical transceivers. The compact LC connector and the robust SC housing ensure straightforward mating in dense patch panels and standard equipment ports.

Advantages

This single-mode fibre cable offers stable optical performance with low insertion loss and high return loss suitable for long-reach links within data centres. The combination of LC and SC connectors delivers broad compatibility with transceivers and patch panels. Its 1 m length reduces excess cable slack for tidy installations and improved airflow in racks. The durable connector housings and factory-terminated polish types provide consistent connection quality and reduced maintenance needs.

Suitable for

• InfiniBand interconnects between servers and switches
• Rack-to-rack or panel-to-panel optical patching in data centres
• Connections to optical transceivers with LC or SC ports
• Low-loss single-mode optical links requiring a 1 m jumper

Key specifications

• Fibre type: single-mode (SMF)
• Connector A: LC/UPC, male
• Connector B: SC/UPC, male
• Length: 1 metre
• Polish type: UPC (Ultra Physical Contact)
• Application: InfiniBand and optical data transmission

How to use

Ensure both equipment ports are compatible with LC/UPC and SC/UPC connectors before installation. Handle the cable by the connector housings to avoid stressing the fibre. Remove protective dust caps from the connector endfaces and carefully insert the LC connector into the LC receptacle and the SC connector into the SC adapter until a secure latch is felt. Route the cable to prevent sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. For testing, verify optical continuity and insertion loss with appropriate test equipment.

Recommendations

Store connectors with dust caps when not in use and avoid exposure to contaminants. Use the 1 m length to minimize slack in patch panels, and label both ends for easy identification during maintenance. For best performance, follow standard handling practices for single-mode fibre and perform regular optical loss checks in production environments.
