BlueOptics SFP3132BU5MK InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 5 m LC SC

The BlueOptics SFP3132BU5MK InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 5 m single-mode patch cord with duplex LC/UPC to SC/UPC connectors. It uses G.657.A1 single-mode fibre (9 µm core) in a yellow LSZH jacket and supports full duplex transmission for 1310 nm and 1550 nm signals. The cable is intended for reliable fiber connections between patch panels, optical transceivers and other network components where single-mode performance and low-loss links are required.

Advantages

The cable provides low attenuation (typical 0.4 dB/km) and low insertion loss, with optimized return loss achievable through connector polish options. High-quality branded fibers and precision connectors with zirconia ceramic ferrules are used to ensure stable optical performance and long mechanical lifetime. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and eliminates halogen emissions in the event of fire, and the assembly is tested by interferometer and OTDR with a measurement protocol supplied with each unit.

Key specifications

How to use

Ensure both endpoints and transceivers are powered down or in a safe maintenance state before connecting. Remove protective caps from the LC and SC connectors, align the connectors with their respective ports and insert until a positive latching click is felt on the LC end and the SC locks in place. Route the fibre cable without tight bends and avoid compressive forces; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for G.657.A1 fiber. After installation, power up the equipment and verify link integrity and optical loss using appropriate test equipment or by checking device link status.

Recommendations

Store connectors with protective caps when not in use and clean endfaces before mating to avoid contamination and increased insertion loss. For permanent or outdoor installations, verify environmental suitability and secure the cable to avoid stress. Use the supplied measurement protocol to document insertion loss and return loss values for record-keeping and troubleshooting.
