BlueOptics SFP2122BU0.5MK InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 0,5 m LC SC

The BlueOptics SFP2122BU0.5MK InfiniBand fibre optic cable 0.5 m LC SC is a short-reach multimode solution designed for high-speed data connections in networking environments. It pairs an LC connector on one end with an SC connector on the other, and uses G.657.A1 fibre to provide low loss, improved bend performance and consistent signal integrity over a 0.5 metre link. This cable is intended for rack-to-rack, switch-to-switch and module-to-module connections where space is limited and reliable optical transmission is required.

Advantages

This InfiniBand fibre cable offers a compact 0.5 m length that reduces excess slack in dense cabling scenarios and improves airflow in server cabinets. The use of G.657.A1 fibre ensures better bend tolerance compared with standard single-mode fibres, helping maintain optical performance in tight routing paths. Interoperable LC and SC terminations allow straightforward connection to common transceivers and patch panels without adapters when those interfaces are used.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by aligning and inserting the LC connector into the LC receptacle and the SC connector into the SC receptacle until they click or seat firmly. Avoid applying excessive force and ensure connector endfaces are clean before mating to prevent signal loss. Route the cable with gentle bends respecting the improved bend radius of G.657.A1 fibre, and secure it to prevent strain on connectors. For removal, depress the connector latch (if present) and withdraw straight out to avoid damaging the ferrule or transceiver.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m LC–SC InfiniBand cable for short, direct optical links where minimal excess length is desired. Clean connectors with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before installation, avoid sharp bends even though G.657.A1 offers enhanced tolerance, and store unused cables coiled loosely to preserve performance.
