BlueOptics SFP3132BU10MK InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 10 m LC SC

The BlueOptics SFP3132BU10MK is a 10 m InfiniBand fibre optic patch cord with a duplex LC/UPC to SC/UPC connector configuration. It uses single-mode OS2 fibre (G.657.A1, 9/125 µm) designed for full-duplex, high-speed data transmission over 1310 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths. The cable is supplied in yellow with a flame-retardant LSZH jacket and is intended for reliable connections between patch panels, optical transceivers and network devices in data centres and telco environments.

Advantages

The cable combines single-mode G.657.A1 fibre with high-quality connectors and zirconia ceramic ferrules to deliver low attenuation (approx. 0.4 dB/km) and high return-loss characteristics. End-to-end testing with interferometer and OTDR is performed and a measurement protocol for insertion loss and return loss is supplied with each unit. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and avoids halogen emission in case of fire, and the assembled connectors are rated for up to 1500 mating cycles.

Key specifications

How to use

Inspect both connector endfaces and the measurement protocol provided before installation. Route the 10 m patch cord without tight bends, maintaining the minimum bend radius recommended for single-mode G.657.A1 fibre. Insert the LC and SC connectors into the corresponding transceiver and patch panel ports until a secure latch is felt. For InfiniBand or SFP interconnects, ensure correct duplex orientation for transmit and receive channels. After installation, verify link status and, if required, measure insertion loss and return loss to confirm performance.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable coiled loosely and avoid sharp bends or tensile stress. Clean connector endfaces with appropriate fibre cleaning tools before mating. Use the supplied test report to verify that insertion loss and return loss meet the required thresholds for your system. For custom lengths or alternative connector polish types (e.g., APC), contact the supplier.
