BlueOptics SFP3232BU5MK InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 5 m SC geel

The BlueOptics SFP3232BU5MK is a 5 m duplex fibre optic patch cord with SC to SC connectors, designed for InfiniBand and high-speed networking applications. It uses single-mode G.657.A1 type fiber (9 µm core diameter) in a yellow LSZH jacket and supports full-duplex optical transmission at common telecom wavelengths. The cable is intended for reliable patching between transceivers, patch panel ports or optical equipment where low attenuation and stable return loss are required.

Advantages

This SC–SC duplex cable provides low attenuation and high return loss suitable for long-reach single-mode links. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, meeting common safety norms. Connectors use zirconia ceramic ferrules to ensure consistent mating performance and long lifetime; each assembly is optically tested to verify input loss and return loss values before shipment.

How to use

Route the 5 m SC–SC duplex patch cord between the SC ports of your transceivers or patch panel. Ensure connectors are clean and free from dust before mating; insert each SC connector until it clicks into the adapter or port. Avoid tight bends and keep bend radius within manufacturer recommendations for single-mode fiber to prevent excess loss. When disconnecting, pull on the connector body rather than the cable jacket to avoid strain on the fiber.

Recommendations

For best performance, inspect and clean SC connector endfaces with appropriate fiber cleaning tools before each connection, secure the LSZH jacket with proper strain relief, and store spare cords in dust-free conditions. Use these patch cords in environments requiring low smoke emission and when single-mode performance at 1310/1550 nm is needed.
