BlueOptics SFP3232BU2MK InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 2 m SC geel

The BlueOptics SFP3232BU2MK is a 2 m InfiniBand fibre optic patch cord with duplex SC/UPC to SC/UPC connectors and a yellow LSZH jacket. It uses G.657.A1 single-mode fiber with a 9 µm core diameter, supports full duplex communication and is optimized for transmission at 1310 nm and 1550 nm. The cable is designed for direct connection between optical transceivers or patch panels and is manufactured and tested to industry standards to ensure consistent attenuation and return loss performance.

Advantages

The cable features a flame-retardant LSZH jacket for reduced smoke and no halogen release in case of fire and provides low attenuation (approximately 0.4 dB/km) and high return loss. Connectors use zirconia ceramic ferrules for reliable mating up to the rated lifecycle and the assembly is built using branded fiber from established manufacturers to minimize signal loss. Each unit is tested after production with interferometer and OTDR and supplied with a measurement protocol of input loss and return loss.

Key specifications

How to use

Remove protective caps from the SC connectors and insert each connector into the corresponding SC port on the transceivers or patch panel until it latches. Ensure polarity is maintained for duplex links and avoid tight bends; follow the minimum bend radius recommended for single-mode G.657.A1 fiber. After installation, verify link status and, if required, use an OTDR or power meter to confirm attenuation and continuity against the provided measurement protocol.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable without kinking; keep connectors capped until use. For best long-term performance, use strain relief at termination points and route the cable away from high-EMI sources. If custom lengths or different connector polishes are needed (e.g., APC), request options prior to ordering.
